girl jobs hate
We just need to put our foot down. This is a good time for us to bring this to a place of fairness, and girls need to know that being a feminist is a good thing. It doesn't mean that you hate men. It means equal rights. If you're doing the same job, you should be compensated and treated in the same way.
character discipline needs
You have to discipline yourself and not carry the character with you. You need to switch it off and take time to re-energize.
thinking pressure wheels
I like being a cog in a wheel. I like being a small aspect of a much bigger thing, and I think my interest in that takes the pressure of myself.
jobs love-is actors
My job as an actor, and the part of my job that I love is the transforming-and-becoming aspect of it, and so it doesn't become about me anymore.
real dark humanity
Well, life is dark. We live in a very dark world. When they call them "dark films" it annoys me, because they're very real stories. They're stories I have seen or experienced or witnessed, and coming from that place, that is the hope of humanity.
character play
You can live vicariously through the characters you play.
girl playing-dress-up hey
Hey, I'm a girl, and we like to play dress-up.
real pride son
Pride comes from a place of real acknowledgment that somebody's actually living their life for themselves, and I want to be that example for my son.
people trying despise
There's nothing I despise more than people trying to be something that they're not.
opportunity given
You are only as great as the opportunities that are given to you.
thinking people want
I think more than anything, people just want to be understood.
thinking giving special
I think that luxury is to be used when you are in your jeans and your T-shirt and you want to feel a little extra special, and you want to go and walk into a store and have somebody go, "Wow, what is that?" Maybe that's the one and only thing you give yourself that day, but I think women like to give that to themselves.
people actors want
I do this because I'm an observer of people. That's why I want to be an actor. I'm fascinated by human beings and the circumstances they find themselves in.
thinking differences said
I think there is a great quote - and I feel horrible that I don't know who said this - but it was a great quote, it says, "The only difference between all of us are the ones who are loved and the ones who are not."
