I've read the Bible. I think the Bible's a great book, but it's a novel. It's beautifully written and la-di-da, but people really took it the wrong way.

I feel like I had to learn how to take care of myself and find out what made me happy aside from just making films.

I'm not interested in playing the girl that's just there to make the guy, you know, give him a talking to.

Well, yeah! Now they're considered golden oldies, which is awesome. I was watching Little Women recently, and I didn't want to get up for fear of missing something. And Heathers is like my own Rocky Horror Picture Show; I recite the lines when it's on. It may seem odd, but I think it's because they're really good movies.

As an actress, you want to try new things. You don't want to repeat yourself. That becomes more important to you, as you get older.

I had this big complex because I didn't go to college. There was a whole era where I got linked to everybody. People that I had never met. I was like, "How? I'm home alone reading chapter 12 of a book."

I was inspired by lots of people, certainly in acting and in writing and stuff, but I never wanted to be somebody else.
