I always advocate to young women that if we don't do this for ourselves, no one else is going to. We have to have a voice.

I know I'm flawed - but perfect is boring anyway! Flawed is good!

I don't like guys who are conventional. I'm an achiever; he has to be an achiever. I admire drive, I admire ambition. I like a guy who keeps my on my toes.

Every movie that I do, I always try and better myself in the next one and try and find a part which is more challenging. It's a little vulnerable to do that, to always push the envelope. You position yourself for a lot more flack or a lot more critique because you're trying to do something different. Sometimes you're good at it and sometimes you're not, but it's a chance you have to take to make life exciting.

Flying is my favorite time in the world. When I'm sitting in a plane, it's amazing because it's quiet and there's no cell phones and no one to talk to you. It's my favorite time. I read all my scripts. I catch up on my movies. I sleep. It's the best. There's no one telling you, "Time to go!"

Strength of character is already written. What we bring, as an actor, is an almost 3D-ness to it.

I seek out parts which are strong women. It's not the quantity of a role; it's the quality of a role.
