As the actor, you just have to believe in what your character is doing in order to play them.

I have the best roommates in the world! It creates a fun sense of family... and that's really important to me. Things can get so lonely without it.

I love nerds. Comic-Con junkies are the tastemakers of tomorrow. Isn't that funny? The tables have turned

I've got more junk in the trunk than most 5-foot-1 blonde girls, and I like it.

You do better in the gym with a trainer; you don't figure out how to cook without reading a recipe. Therapy is not something to be embarrassed about.

I did find out about the koalas and how eucalyptus makes them high and why they sleep all day. They're little druggies.

When I see something unjust, I have to intervene - it's hard for me to watch the underdog suffer.

Part of my becoming a vegetarian was that I would look at my burger, then look at my dogs, and I wasn't able to see a difference.

I'm not a risk taker. I don't do plunging necklines or really short skirts. I try to stay as classy as possible and provide a little mystery.

I don't think there's anything immature about fighting for the underdog and fighting for people who don't have a voice. I have an intense desire to protect people who can't protect themselves.

There is no real aloneness. There is solitude and the nurturing silence that is relationship with ourselves, but even then we are part of something larger.

I used to ride motorbikes and drive cars like everything was a racetrack it was ridiculous. It wasn't because I thought it was cool it was just because I loved living on the edge. But I've chilled.

Wisdom is also a deeper consciousness of ignorance.

In the past, some of the songs that were the most fun, and the most entertaining and rocking, fell by the wayside because I was concerned with what I was going to say and how I was going to say it.

If there is gossip to be garnered, garner it. If there are new dress styles to be imitated, imitate them. If there are hearts to be broken, break them. That's my girls.

It's better to repent what you enjoyed than to repent not having enjoyed anything.

It is my guiding confession that I believe the greatest error in economics is in seeing the economy as a stable, immutable structure.

The decisions you make determine the schedule you keep. The schedule you keep determines the life you live. And how you live your life determines how you spend your soul.

To me, authentic love is a sacred encounter we all yearn for.

You own your own words, unless they contain information. In which case they belong to no one.
