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 don't love the word "quirky." I think it's a word that's a catchall. It's a word that doesn't stand in empathy with the person, it stands in judgment of them. It's a very externalized word.

There are a lot of words that I knew first as a reader, and I never put the pieces together in my brain. The word segue I thought was pronounced "seeg," I think until I went to college, which is horribly embarrassing.

If I ever feel that acting is just soul-sucking and I don't want to do it anymore, I could stop.

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 think even probably the people we look up to the most, and think are on the Mount Olympus of actors - they're still experiencing nervousness.

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."
