I see the human in everyone and everything. No one is more important than anyone else; I still hang out with my high school friends.

Music has always helped me stay creative and grounded because I'm traveling and shooting and trying to understand other people. Music was something I could just sit in a room and make with my friends.

My dad has totally taken my Cat Stevens T-shirt, but it's OK; I have his Black Flag one, and that's amazing.

The thing that my parents have always taught me is that beauty comes from the inside, and also that beauty stems from health.

If you're not taking care of yourself, lipstick and foundation isn't really going to do anything for you.

I was pretty lucky, I went to a really great school. I went to a Steiner School, which is very small and nurturing and creative, so I felt like I was in an environment where I could mature. There was less of the clique-y stuff, which can really make high school a living hell for a lot of people, going on, so I was very similar then to who I am now. I'm still a dork.

I'm a New Yorker; I've paid my dues.
