Any time you do a movie there are going to be war wounds that you end up getting.

Im a combination between extreme insecurity and extreme confidence.

Going to the darkest place you can to make yourself really upset and adding that with the physicality and running around, you can work yourself into hysteria that way.

I love stories about people that, whatever situation they're in, you can relate to them in a way.

When I was little, I thought about becoming a lawyer like my parents, and my mother would always tell me, "You can do anything you want - except be a lawyer."

I'm really easily affected by horror films. I have pretty strong reactions to them.

I'm a huge fan of Steve Martin. He's hilarious, but he has this depth to him and this way of dealing with the difficult things in life with a sense of humor that I think has helped me as an actress.

Many people think that open source projects are sort of chaotic and and anarchistic. They think that developers randomly throw code at the code base and see what sticks.

I think it's good to be a little more fearless in saying what you feel. In not being scared of the repercussions of that.

In all honesty, I never actually did anything wrong (in my eyes, at least) at school or misbehaved in any big way. If it was anything, it was probably just a lot of clowning around.

society, while willing to make room for women, is not willing to make changes for them.

It's not the voting that's democracy; it's the counting.

You never know what you can do till you try.
