I kind of moved out of the town I grew up in as quick as I could. I left right after high school.

I think actors always have that fear of unemployment so when the opportunities are there, you just jump on them.

In real life, I don't fall in love with the guy who wines and dines me, I fall in love with the flaws and the humanity. When I see someone get embarrassed or when I see them wearing their heart on their sleeve, I want to see that in movies. I hate seeing the put-together people, and then it makes everyone think they're supposed to look like that. It's all a bunch of BS.

I think Carl Jung said, you know, I'm gonna paraphrase it badly, but, so much of what we fall in love with in other people is a potential in us that's ready to be realized. We're projecting onto them this amazing thing, but really it's us, and we're very close to integrating it and claiming it. If we do claim it, then we can just love somebody for who they are with all their flaws, but if we don't take that projection back, then we keep wanting them to have that. Then you just realize we're all screwed, that's how it works.

And I think a lot of us have fantasies of going back to where we're from, or when we do go back we're so nostalgic about it.

We have our whole lives to try and get a glimpse of what that could be, in our own life. It's so exciting.
