I love acting because it's a bit of an escape. It gives you the ability to reinvent yourself. They say that acting is the shy man's revenge.

A long time ago, in a country not so far away, I was eight years old, doing my best Darth Vader imitation.

Everyone has their own approach to how they work.

Ewan McGregor and I had very similar first-time light sabre experiences. We both burned ourselves! These things are hot - they're full of batteries!

I don't see how you can give someone who lied to the extent that he did a second chance in the same line of work.

I have two sisters and a mother, obviously, so I grew up with a household of girls. Maybe I have a greater respect for women because of it.

One of the things I find about acting is that the less the audience knows about the actor, the more they're able to believe in him in the role.

I don't think things like trust should just be handed out. You have to earn that.

I've always been kind of a hermit.

I try to stay away from the L.A. scene as much as possible. I feel it helps me to better prepare for my roles if I am not too involved in that whole thing.

I wish they taught green screen acting classes.

You have to lead people gently toward what they already know is right.

If [something] is of God, your dependence upon God will increase.

Don't carry a grudge. While you're carrying the grudge, the other guys's out there dancing.

I got married because it was the right time and the right thing to do.

Prince Charles is the best-dressed man in the world.

For someone like me, who loves to sweat and push herself, it's a challenge to slow down, to sit, to breathe and hold poses.

I'd like to be a bit less pale because I feel like I look sort of ill sometimes.

People didn't get to see how other towns interpreted the underground ethos, and so they developed their own unique versions of it.

I'm not a prophet or a teacher, I just ask questions. I don't think a writer should be a teacher, but should know how to pose the questions and explain the problems.

If the national park is, as Lord Bryce suggested, the best idea America has ever had, wilderness preservation is the highest refinement of that idea.
