Linda Hamilton is my hero. She was so tough and so strong and so vulnerable at the same time. I think that's what woman action figures are allowed to be: vulnerable, in a way that women are.

You show your vulnerability through relationships, and those feelings are your soft spot. You need to have a soft spot.

I competed in track for 10 years and have been doing kickboxing forever.

You can't get a dolphin. What are you gonna do, like, put it in your pool?

I think somebody who speaks the language is going to notice immediately that I'm not Russian.
