I do get stopped a bit now and then, but I can go to the supermarket and on the Tube without being noticed. It's usually me that gets starstruck, especially by TV stars.

Up there on the screen, we can all fly. But down here on earth, we need to be each others wings.

I walk around talking to myself in accents. Usually people look at me like I'm a complete fruit loop.

I'm as voyeuristic and intrigued as the next person as to how celebrities live.

Learning lines is hard for me because I have the attention span of a six year old. That's why being on planes all the time is so useful - I'm forced to learn out of boredom.

The fear of messing up is what makes you work harder!

I always try to describe making movies like summer camp, or some holiday where you spend all day, every day with a new group of people whom you kind of love and then never see again.

You never know what's right, what you feel inside versus what is portrayed.

I love the Potter films. I found them the most wonderful sort of escapism every year or two.

They're such hierarchical things, film sets, they're sort of mini societies. Often they're incredibly political places.

It can be a miserable profession, acting, because you always want what you can’t have.

No matter how knowledgeable you are, respect your parents for their experience and your children for their curiosity.

You can always trust information given you by people who are crazy they have an access to truth not available through regular channels.

We honor those who walked so we could run. We must run so our children soar. And we will not grow weary.

You meet a lot of people in New York who are different than you, and have different stories, so I see everyone as super individual.

Elphaba looked like something between an animal and an Animal, like something more than life but not quite Life.

They were looking for a stable, but we didn't have one. In fact, we weren't very stable ourselves.

Its hard to decide if TV makes morons out of everyone, or if it mirrors Americans who really are morons to begin with

For me, what makes life enjoyable is having a shared culture and shared references.

Journalists often put things into either-or scenarios.

I feel like I'm a kid again.
