I would love to play a role that is a lead role that people appreciate and a lot of people get to see. I just don't want to have to fight for every role anymore.

I have to save the parts of my soul that are left for the good roles and the true love.

There's nothing you could really avoid about giving yourself to somebody who ultimately rejects you. That's just life.

I wouldn't play the normal girl. I don't think that that's interesting or realistic, as far as how human beings really are.

It's a good idea to prioritize your life and not making drinking the top priority. I think there are aspects of it that definitely illuminate bad decisions and how they'll negatively affect you.

I like living in California. I think it's the best state, although we're supposedly the most hated state of all.

When you do well at an audition, it is the highest high you can achieve because you just beat yourself. You became whatever it was, for a minute. It's a great feeling, when that happens.

The stakes are so high because auditions are make or break. You get the job or you don't. The stakes are about as high as they get, for yourself and your own self-esteem.

It would be nice to not have to prove myself, and for people to know that I'm good and can play a role. Whatever role that is that lets people know that I can play the next role is what I want to do.

People always assume that things are just handed to me, but I've had to prove myself, every inch of the way.

My only intention is to just have a little bit more success so that my career is easier and I don't have to work so hard just to get a job.

You should never go on diet and must follow a healthy lifestyle.

Faith is not belief without proof, but trust without reservation.

I feel like there is always something trying to pull us back into sleep, that there is this sort of seductive quality in all the hedonistic pleasures that pull on us.

As the youngest, I wanted to be my father's son and perpetuate the family name

Well, it is a humiliating reflection, that the straightest road to a man's heart is through his palate.

And let our despite go to those who work and fight and our hate to those who hope and trust.

I found it peculiar that those who wanted to take military action could - with 100 per cent certainty - know that the weapons existed and turn out to have zero knowledge of where they were.

And though I ebb in worth, I'll flow in thanks.

Let us resist the opinion of the world fearlessly, provided only that our self-respect grows in proportion to our indifference.

The important thing is to teach a child that good can always triumph over evil...
