I actually work at my craft, and I actually want to be the best in my category, and I want to be a true actress. And a lot of people just want fame, and there's a huge difference.

I have a lot of looks but right now I'm really into grunge. Messy hair, black heels. I get Michelle Pfeiffer with it.

As Chloe, I can honestly say I've never uttered a syllable of a curse word, not even behind closed doors.

My mom has always said that if I get a big head, she'll take me out of this business as quickly as I got into it.

I hate when things are sugar-coated. I'd rather have the ugliest truth than the best lie.

Don't front, don't put something out there that you feel isn't realistic and doesn't portray who you are. Just be yourself, be you, and don't be afraid to speak your mind.

I'll date one day if I find someone that I want to let into my life enough.

I love getting told no 'cause then I fight even more.

I truly hope you realize how important setting goals are for young women, teaching them we have so much more to offer than our bodies.

I think the best roles are in dark movies. It's roles that aren't you. It's fun playing someone that's not me. If I'm playing me all the time, then it's not acting. It's just being yourself.

I'm an average, everyday girl...

The white people always want to fight someone and they always get the dark-skinned people to do the fighting.

If you know how it’s to be treated unfairly, you will be gentle with others.

Hatred is the emotional price leaders must pay for getting love and honour.

Your candor is worth everything to your cause. It is refreshing to find a person with a new theory who frankly confesses that he finds difficulties, insurmountable, at least for the present.

The general perception, in much of the Middle East, is that the United States is an unreliable friend and a harmless enemy. I think we want to give the exact opposite impression.

It's always a longer walk to the men's room, buckaroo.

You kinda want to look for the anomalies. You don't actually want to look for the expected behaviour.

It is the child who makes the man, and no man exists who was not made by the child he once was.

I think I'm a shy, self-conscious person who thinks he's being looked at and tries to look okay. Not in a hottie, narcissistic way necessarily.

I used to have a great love for Dostoyevsky and Tolstoy, the big boys of the last century.
