I'm always in bed by 11 or 12 and people laugh all the time - they want me to hang out until two in the morning, but n-n-no, I need my nine hours.
I hate sitting around and talking about the emotional background of a character. She is a storybook character, she's not real. That means you have so much more freedom, in that you don't have to make anything she does believable or make people believe her choices in the story.
I'm one of those people who loves to fly.
I think people are learning to actually aspire to be objectified.
I'm trying to just go with the flow and learn from the people around me.
I think I've always been interested in playing people who are judged very harshly.
I take Wellbutrin because I'm afraid to go into stores. I'm afraid people are going to yell at me.
People are giving me more respect.
You always fear when you're making a movie that has a moral to the story that people are going to reject the idea of being taught a lesson.
I think people who suffer from depression, unless it's post-traumatic, are probably going to struggle with it for their whole life.
I'm not perfect-looking and I don't say the right things, I'm a little different, nothing really special, but I guess I come across as a little more real to people and that comes through on the screen. I know I look young, but with the right make-up I can look older. I definitely feel older.
I stand up for other people, I'm very protective of people around me. If I feel like somebody is getting a bad rap or being unfairly picked on, I will stand up for them, absolutely.
Most people don't walk around knowing what other people think about them, and I don't think it's healthy to know what faceless strangers who you'll never meet say about you.
We might all be so afraid to be who we are, but in the end, it's really you're individual, unique qualities that make you attractive to people.
