Our brains are very animal but also very strange and egotistical. We're narcissistic.

When I act, a part of me goes into the character I am playing.

I don't believe actors who say they don't bleed into their characters. It's absolutely impossible not to.

It's ok to say, 'this is what I want' and go after it.

I was a ballet dancer for so long, but when I realized I had reached my limit and that I couldn't go any further I knew I wanted to pursue acting. That's one thing you don't use as a dancer - your voice. And the one thing I use most in my life is my voice so it's wonderful to get to express myself artistically through the biggest instrument I use.

I love skin. I don't believe the body is something to hide.

Not to settle. If you're not happy with a person, leave. And wait until you find that one person who makes you feel good about yourself every single day and is not expecting you to change, but to grow.
