In New York you can just walk out and be among people. You're on the subway among people, you go to cafes, you can talk to people.

I think a large part of an actor's job in preparation is just making the words feel organic to them, and obviously they came out of me, so they felt organic to me already. And then I think then it was all about clearing away all the other voices.

I hate going to bed. I read scripts, clean, listen to the radio - I've fallen asleep to 'This American Life' more times than I can count!

I'm klutzy, and I don't embarrass easily.

I really love people. I love to meet people. I'm curious about people.

I find playwriting really painful. I love it, or I wouldn't do it, but I don't love the theater as much as I love movies.

When we do something we're not proud of, a lot of people don't want to look at that, people may say "what people don't know won't hurt them."
