Unfortunately, I don't think I can call myself an activist because I don't really do enough of anything.

Theater has always been terrifying to me.

I usually spend my free time worrying about when I'm going to work next.

I wish feminism wasn't so scary to people. It should be an evolving concept. I think it's an umbrella term to embrace conflicting ideas.

I used to joke that if acting didn't work out, poetry was my commonsense fallback.

I think when you're on a show that takes place in N.Y.C. but film it in L.A. there is just a vibe that feels wrong.

Broadway is like a club I haven't been invited to, and I'm hoping that maybe they will give me a guest pass one of these days.

I wrote a lot when I was younger, though never anything like plays or scripts.

I do think there are trends in your life once youve been auditioning long enough. I was the angry teenager and then the sweet victim.

There are some great positive quotes out there that I can't quite share as I wonder how a victim in a war torn country could be expected to see from their perspective?

Yes, there's a lot of the blues in my playing.

If it requires great tact to speak to the purpose, it requires no less to know when to be silent.

I want to do one thing, and do it well.

Youth, beauty, graceful action seldom fail: But common interest always will prevail; And pity never ceases to be shown To him who makes the people's wrongs his own.

Once I started performing I knew that's what I wanted to do with my life. But you have to work really hard to be a performer.

My blood is alive with many voices telling me I am made of longing.

When I wake up in the morning, I think about Syria.

I don't know the future. I didn't come here to tell you how this is going to end. I came here to tell you how it's going to begin.

With four? Doing a little... Addition? Multiplication?
