So here I was expecting at the very best a cordial welcome from the girls who were prepared to fight me to the death for someone I didn’t want. Instead I was embraced.

True love is usually the most inconvenient kind.

I hope you find someone you can't live without.I really do. And I hope you never have to know what it's like to have to try and live without them.

P.S. May, don’t these strawberry tarts just make you want to cry?

No, I’m not choosing him or you. I’m choosing me.

Castes never meant that much to me.

I should have known that if any girl was going to disobey an order, it would be you.

The Selection was no longer something that was simply happening to me, but something I was actively a part of. I was an Elite.

Try patting them on the back or shoulder and telling them everything is going to be fine. Lots of times when girls cry, they don't want you to fix the problem, they just want to be consoled.

If you don’t want me to be in love with you, you’re going to have to stop looking so lovely. First thing tomorrow I’m having your maids sew some potato sacks together for you.

You get confused by crying women, I get confused by walks with princes.

I like stylish men although I'm someone who sees a man who's not dressed right and think what I could do with him to make him cute. I'm a typical Jewish woman like that.

I don't know what genre I've fallen into, I don't know where it is, and that's really exciting.

Quaintness is creepy. So let's maximize that.

I'm really not feeling one way or the other with comedy or drama, I'm just sort of doing projects that I've been finding really fun to be a part of.

To be young is to live in the hope of escaping youth; to be old, in the despair of having succeeded.

Sometimes your characters in films do things that you wouldn't do. You're not playing yourself all the time.

It was another day to go to work, and try to play and play well.

The future is very much in our hands--in our actions.

I think one of the things about creativity is not to be afraid of saying the wrong thing.

For every sale you miss because you're too enthusiastic, you will miss a hundred because you're not enthusiastic enough.
