If I feel confident wearing something, I think it translates in photographs. It changes my demeanor and posture.

I don't like any kind of negativity. I try to be good to everyone, whether it's a love, a friend, an ex. I'll always try to treat people the way I want to be treated.

Sometimes, the only way to discover who we are, is by figuring out who we are not.

There's just something about vampires that's sexy...It's the same reason why women go for the bad boy - you want them but you shouldn't have them.

Even though you're growing up, you should never stop having fun.

My goal on the show was to be professional. But sometimes you cant help who you have a connection with, and you can only fight it for so long - which I did for a really, really long time.

I literally pass out when I see blood.

I was kind of a jock in school. Beauty wasn't something I spent a lot of time on.

I'm constantly trying to make myself better, to learn more. I didn't finish college, so I feel like I'm always having to prove myself. I don't want to feel like the smallest person in the room.

Actually... I'm starting a new thing and rebelling against ridiculously high heels. It's inhumane.

I want to do things where the talent range is difficult and that scare me. I thrive on that; if it's not scaring me then I'm not growing.

Haven't my past sermons taught you anyt

For the first 30years of life, you keep learning. The rest of your life you keep unlearning what you had learnt

I'm starting my own family and there is no other feeling like it.

When you are doing what you love to do, you become resilient.

Everything we say signifies; everything counts, that we put out into the world. It impacts on kids, it impacts on the zeitgeist of the time.

So with 'There Will Be Blood,' I didn't even really feel like I was adapting a book. I was just desperate to find stuff to write.

Those movies, Decline I and II and Suburbia, are dearly loved, but they never made any money. I didn't even have the rights for some of them.

I think these are terrible times to be anything in.

The big influence on me was Robert Altman, who, especially in 'Nashville,' transformed my sense of dramatic structure and showed how you could handle overlapping stories.

Minds are like oysters. They spoil if you pry them open.
