I've learned that it's OK to be flawed.

It’s equally as important to me to be a good friend, and a good sister, and a good daughter. I’m very close with my family and friends.

Even though 'Heathers' didn't make a lot of money, I really was able to transition into a situation where people thought I could play an attractive role because of it.

That first movie I did, Lucas [1986], was probably the closest to me. And Beetlejuice a little bit, in the sense that I did look like that. All they did was like put a little white powder here.

I have this sense that I didn't really start growing up until my twenties.

If something brilliant comes along but I really feel like it's too old for me - that I'm not gonna have the experience it takes - I'm not gonna do it. Even if it's "a big mistake for my career".

One thing you have to have when you act is energy.
