In my life, I don't need to have my face plastered everywhere. It's not really something I want.

For some unknown reason, bad-boys draw you in despite the fact that they are jerks.

I did one year at NYU, and I'd love to go back there someday

I'm still a shy person. I've learned to put that aside on certain occasions. I have to. It's part of my job.

A lot of girls ask for advice on how to get into acting, and I'm kind of the worst person to ask, because it just kind of fell in my lap... I was just in the right place at the right time.

Sometimes I feel like I am an old person trapped in a young person's body. I'm boring. I go to movies. I read. That's about it.

When I was modeling as a teenager, I just ignored it when people said to lose two inches off my hips. I had more jobs than I could take. So why would I even want more?

I think that's what makes life interesting - the evolution of getting older, and it's kinda fascinating to me, the whole process.

Directors and writers have a lot of stress as well, because they have people they answer to.

Each character is a completely whole person with their problems and many sides to their personality. It's so rich with details as well, like the set.

As actors we try to find different sides of ourselves.

Two people that have the same wants are two people that should be friends.

I'm not sure if my dream is a dream, or a nightmare.

All is good. Don't worry, the pain will help you. You'll get into some trouble, but it will work out in the end.

Happy is the man who finds a true friend, and far happier is he who finds that true friend in his wife.

When I was a child - in wartime, pre-television - books were my life.

I can't tell people how to have style. No amount of money can buy you style. It's just instinctive.

One of the things I find very little of in America - and certainly not on Broadway - are plays with political attitudes.

It was clear soon after his election that Obama, like FDR, wanted to start dealing with the economic crisis immediately after his inauguration.

Cast yourself. You are the spell.

Those times when you feel like quitting can be times of great opportunity, for God uses your troubles to help you grow.
