I like to be around people who make me laugh. It's one of my favorite things on a set. I hate it when people take themselves serious in a film set.

I have two roommates, so it's a challenge to keep the house the way I like.

If Americans could choose, would they choose to work on the infrastructure for cancer-causing oil power or would they choose to work on the infrastructure for health-reviving wind power?

It's not your circumstances that make or break your day. It's your attitude!

I just like short hair on women; I think its cool.

I'm very picky when it comes to men. I come across a man who I'm really attracted to about once every five years.

I'm surrounded by people who care about me and love me. I have a great job. I have wonderful roommates who take care of me. I have a family who adores me.

Acting is something I appreciate, and I think it's been an amazing experience. But I'm not passionate about acting the way you probably should be to call yourself an actor.

There is a little bit of evil in all of us, and it's very easy to draw that out.

I cried myself to sleep wishing I was ugly because men leered and disrespected me.

I'm a very stubborn woman and I'm from a very stubborn family of headstrong women. I have sisters, so the women rule the coop in my house.

True understanding lies beyond the desert

Every man ought to plant a tree.

Age brings maturity, experience ripens it.

The perplexity of life arises from there being too many interesting things in it for us to be interested properly in any of them.

You are the mother, the father, the sister, the brother, the teacher and the guide for the soul that has been placed in your trust.

I have one aim, the grotesque. If I am not grotesque I am nothing.

'What is' is more important than 'what should be.' Too many people are looking at 'what is' from a position of thinking 'what should be'.

Our conjectures pass upon us for truths; we will know what we do not know, and often, what we cannot know: so mortifying to our pride is the base suspicion of ignorance.

I like playing really super-intense, live-in-the-moment characters. It asks me to not phone it in. It's impossible to phone it in. Every American boy has spent his childhood pretending to get shot.
