I would love to do comedy. I'm actually really animated and goofy. I talk with my hands so intensely.

Everybody has lost somebody that they care about, or hopefully you havent, but thats part of life.

Honestly, my goals shift and change, as I move along.

I've always been interested in martial arts.

I feel very, very fortunate to have the success that I've had. I want to keep working and keep moving forward. Acting is my dream job. I love it so much.

I'm very Canadian. I want everyone to love me, and I just get nervous.

That's one of the things of being an actor. You have to push any knowledge of any future, at all, out of your mind. You never know what's going to happen where.

I think whenever you lose somebody close to you, there's always a part of you that wishes you could have done something differently.

When I'm playing somebody, their wardrobe, for me, is completely transformative. You just step into who that person is with that.

I'm the worst at teasing. I don't really know how much I can and can't say.

My boyfriend asked me to tell a story without my hands, and I couldn't talk.

When a leader has an attitude of gratitude, it can create great differences in the lives of others.

A defining factor of team success is trust in God.

Weakness, like not being able to bury the past. Weakness, like not giving up hope when you know you should.

Defending the library service from the predations of ideologically-motivated public schoolboys who had immensely privileged childhoods isn’t ‘whining, ’ it is the pursuit of passionately held beliefs.

When it comes to being visionary in stealing, the Republicans do better than anybody. It's really something to see.

I hope to continue writing. I hope to continue teaching.

Because the sweeter the cake, the more bitter the jelly can be.

You can learn all sorts of rules and techniques of writing and still not be able to assemble something beautiful or enchanting.

A Dirty Shame was a crazy movie. I don't understand that movie at all. I don't get it, but I'd work with John Waters again in a heartbeat. He's just a delight.
