I've always said that the experience of meeting an artist that you are in awe of and that you hope to create with one day is usually disappointing because you put them up on a pedestal, and then you're like, 'Wow, that's not a nice person.'

Leaving my house and getting on to a red carpet is always crazy for me, because you have to find a way to be comfortable in the most uncomfortable situation imaginable.

If I can do anything in this time of my career, I want to make it easier for other actresses and girls who are growing up to go, 'I get to be a part of a comedy or an action film or a romantic comedy or a thriller or just a romance, without having to wind up with someone to complete us.' I complete me. I just got lucky that, after I completed myself, I met someone who could tolerate me.

Everyone does things for love.

I admire actresses who are good to women. I don't like the ones who just don't like women. You can feel it. They're degrading themselves.

My parents were opera singers and voice teachers, so growing up, I admired musicians and dancers.

I don't want to be seen as the kind of person who does things and then expects publicity in return.
