I've been a feminist since the day I was born. I wanted to play football. I didn't want to play with dolls; I wanted to play with boys and didn't understand why I couldn't.

It took me a long time to realize that being a girl is so much more powerful than being a guy, but I really saw myself as boy for a long while.

It's weird, It's really weird to be called a breakout star. And some people are referring to my show as the new 'Friends', which I can't really even wrap my head around

None of my friends are in the entertainment industry.

You'd be surprised. Girls like sensitive, namby-pamby guys.

I'm really awkward when people recognize me. I'm not good at it, and for the most part it hadn't happened to me until 'True Blood,' and then, all of a sudden, it started happening all the time.

Save the Date' feels like a quiet story about two sisters and the men in their lives, kind of reminiscent of the quieter rom-coms of the 1990s; it's very character-driven and not as wedding-focused.

There are some of us who are just born with a more adventurous spirit than others. There are lots of people who would rather do the same thing, and she just was never that.

I like being put in embarrassing positions because it's the reason why I wanted to be an actress. I want to try different things and things that make me uncomfortable.

It's too scary in television. It's scary to sign a six-year contract for something that you don't necessarily know about.

My first acting role as a kid was on Freaks and Geeks.

Education is a fundamental principle of what made America a success. We can't afford to throw any young people away.

Competitiveness has been a big thing for me.

I try to just focus on the love and my family. That's what I'm focussed on every single day.

To think the universe is only composed of the physical universe is to be rather shortsighted.

I think that feminism is in cycle. Feminism rotates between backlash and interest.

All the four stages in a man's life are devised by the seers in Hinduism for imposing discipline and self-restraint.

Genius is both the sail and the wind; that's why he continues his journey without stopping!

If we are ever to have pure knowledge of anything, we must get rid of the body and contemplate things by themselves with the soul by itself.

When one guy sees an invisible man he's a nut case; ten people see him it's a cult; ten million people see him it's a respected religion.

The short words are best, and the old words, when short, are the best of all.
