I'm in love with the city. You can impress an Australian with a city, but you can't impress them with a beach.

I think it's only through learning, and doing something uncomfortable, that you can actually change. That's why I wanted to do a play. I was so scared of it and I knew my brain would really be stretched and it was going to be hard. And it was hard and uncomfortable. Instead of naturally wanting to avoid all those feelings I need to lean toward them more. But saying that, don't ask me to make a lasagna or a Coq au vin.

I think diversity for most actors is such a blessing. It's something definitely I've strived for.

People would make fun of me and throw things at me and whatever teenagers do.

Where I am now, you're very much at everybody else's mercy. You have no control over your career in a lot of ways. It's just important to know what your own goals are, because that's empowering.

I loved performing; I was always trying to impress my siblings by being a clown. I think that came from being the runt of the litter.

I have to rein myself in sometimes.
