In my worst moments, I try to think about loving instead of hating. Creation versus destruction, know what I'm sayin'?

I met this homeless man who had never owned a shirt in his life. He had taken his pants and worn them as a shirt and I thought it was so creative. He was liberated from the conventions of fashion.

I wear everything from hip-hop baggy pants to beautiful Armani dresses. I also like to mix vintage clothing with designer pieces.

I'm going to Columbia University but I'm trying to keep that low-profile because I don't want weird people following me there. I want the experience of normal college life.

Make yourself useful, not just on a day to day basis, but as a lifetime thing.

I like analyzing human behavior. It's complex. That's what keeps me going.

I tend to gravitate toward the more powerful roles. As opposed to the doe-eyed girl who bats her eyelashes and runs around in towels, you now what I mean? Because that kind of makes me want to vomit.

My regular school didn't know what to do with me!

I am a big fan of horror movies but I had never thought that I had wanted to act in one because I don't think that actors get to do much in them. They're usually just reacting.

I think that ultimately I just have to be myself. You know, I don't do anything that outlandish anyway.

I always feel like a goofy little kid.

You have what it takes to finish excellently if you strive toward it

Dear God, you created us in your likeness, our hearts are uneasy until they find you - From the film Sophie Scholl

No elevator of progress with wells of prejudices. (Pas d'ascenseur de progrès - Avec puits de préjugés.)

So this is it. Match point for eternity.

Return to me, for my heart wants you only. Hurry home, hurry home, won't you please hurry home to my heart.

Our jobs as artists is to make sure our art tells a real story and let people see themselves in these characters. It's about having a conversation about being better people.

That's the way I learned photography: You make your picture in the camera. Now, so much is made in the computer. ... I'm not anti-digital, I just think, for me, film works better.

We are more unhappy to see people ahead of us than happy to see people behind us.

For the correct analogy for the mind is not a vessel that needs filling, but wood that needs igniting.

Well, I'm an artist to the core. And my objective has always been to use my talents and my skills to elevate humanity through my art.
