I like guys who are confident but not cocky, who are comfortable with themselves, and who know what they want.

Pretty people aren't as accepted as other people. It's like, 'She's pretty and thin and she's got to have problems. She's messed up.'

Pretty people aren't as accepted as other people. It comes with all these stigmas.

I like playing dark, offbeat, quirky characters.

I'm not really sure what people's preconceived notions are. I don't look at the gossip websites - it's unhealthy and I think it's a large part of what drives people in L.A. crazy.

It kind of irritates me that I'm seen as this pretty face. People also say I'm too thin. The truth is pretty people aren't as accepted as other people. It comes with all these stigmas.

I love to draw people's faces. I do that all the time.

There are some things I like about L.A. You can have a really healthy lifestyle, and I love running with the dogs on the beach. It's just the social scene is horrific!

The only way to be happy and be a more enjoyable person to be around is to embrace what you've got. Everyone has issues about their body, but I feel confident now. I'm healthy and happy.

Paris Hilton isn't my rival. I met her one or two times and she's making out there's this big rivalry between us and there so isn't.

I do intelligent roles. I don't want to be labeled as doing silly movies. I'm more mature than kids my age because I'm constantly surrounded by adults.

The problem with being an author in this modern world is such: computers break often

After all is said and done more is said than done.

I think God's a pretty fair guy.

Peace is a fulltime job. It's protecting civilians, overseeing elections, and disarming ex-combatants. Peace, like war, must be waged.

I spent most of the year in the studio for electronic music at a radio station in Cologne or in other studios where I produced new works with all kinds of electronic apparatus.

I wanted to come through with my own voice and, hopefully, have it affect people. I want people to know that I'm not an Elvis impersonator.

I believe in mythology. I guess I share Joseph Campbell's notion that a culture or society without mythology would die, and we're close to that.

Cortez looked like someone newly in love, the way only twenty-four-year-olds can look.

I do a good job of blocking painful, unnecessary things from my memory.

The Beduin could not look for God within him: he was too sure that he was within God.
