Mellow doesn’t always make for a good story, but it makes for a good life.
Michelle Pfeiffer in Tim Burton’s ‘Batman’ was one of the most inspiring – I saw that and I was like, ‘I want to be her, I want to do that.’
I think I was raised in a solidly upper-middle class family who had really strong values and excess was not one of the things that my family put up with.
I don’t feel comfortable doing movies. It’s not what I trained to do. I trained to be a theater actress. You put me on a stage in front of 2,000 people, I know what to do.
Irony is the bringing together of two contradictory truths and to make out of the contradiction a new truth, with a laugh or a smile.
Your face needs to have character if you’re an actor – otherwise you’re just a face.
I think nudity is related to everything.
I’ve worked with people and I’ve known people that were really competitive but I’ve always said that I take an Elizabeth Bennett philosophy of life – I laugh. I love my job but if it means hurting someone, I won’t do it.
I had a dream. And it came true.

I love the short-haired lifestyle.
I’ve honestly been really lucky. My only jobs have been babysitting and acting.
I want to work with people that frighten me and excite me, and characters that I don’t believe I’m the best person for the part but I’m still gonna try anyway. Those are my favorite roles.
I grew up in a pretty large family. We were really close-knit, so I definitely want to have lots and lots of children.
But you have to remember in life that there’s a positive to every negative and a negative to every positive.
I think fashion is a lot of fun. I love clothes. More than fashion or brand labels, I love design. I love the thought that people put into clothes. I love when clothes make cultural statements and I think personal style is really cool. I also freely recognize that fashion should be a hobby.
I love it when people are able to interpret thoughts and feelings on fabric or some kind of material.
Here’s how you get Hollywood in Positano: You need a nail salon and a yogurt place...
I have no aspirations of world domination through the pop charts. None at all.
