"Actors are observers. They're trying to
have an understanding of human sensibility. And how do you have that accurate observation if you regard yourself as someone
of great importance? When you're the one constantly being observed, because they view you as a celebrity? It's all wrong."
"All my characters have characteristics
I don't know anything about and that's the joy. Being able to justify their actions, and find sympathy in their wrongs, and
understand their accomplishments. After Life as a House I took a while off and tried to remember who I was at the beginning

"All I want is all what my mother wanted
for me when she raised me - to be happy. For that, I don't need to be in a relationship. I don't need to have a certain level
of respect. I just want to care very much about what I do and be kind to everyone in the process. It's important that I can
feel that. That's happiness."
"I have two sisters and a mother, obviously,
so I grew up with a household of girls. Maybe I have a greater respect for women because of it."
