People recognize me all the time. I think it's really nice. I don't mind it at all. It feels kind of surreal when people know who you are and I think that it's really cool.
It's important to be a global citizen at the same time and appreciate different cultures and different people and different ways of life.
I always talk about my characters like they're real people.
The hardest thing is at the end you have to say bye to all these people who you have worked with for so many months. It was really sad not to see them anymore. But you have the parties that you go to and you get to see them, like the premieres and the screenings.
Dear God, I do not ask for health or wealth. People ask you so often that you can't have any left. Give me, God, what else you have. Give me what no-one else asks for. Amen.
People like to examine the things that frighten them, to look at them and give them names, so saints look for god, and scientists look for evidence. They're both just trying to take away from the mystery, to take away from the fear.
It's hard to remember when you look at a magazine or when you look at pictures of people, and you forget that those people are people like you. They have flaws and insecurities. That's so easy to forget, even for me, as somebody who's sometimes in those magazines.
It's just such an honor to say that I was in something by Steven Spielberg. I feel so blessed I got to meet such great people, and I got to go to a beautiful place, Vancouver, and I had a great time.
It's something that's always been there for me, that I have huge blue eyes - it's been something that people have always talked about.
Is that the terrorists? ... War of the Worlds.
Even making dark movies ? when the scenes are over, I'm done. I don't stay in character or take it home. I go in and out of character and then have fun on the set.
I've always wanted to be an actress, ever since I was a little girl. I've always played the mom and I play my sister as the daughter. I wanted to be an actress on television and movies instead of just around the house.

Thank you so much for including me in this year's It List. I couldn't believe it when I found out! I was so excited. Thank you for inviting me to the It List party in New York. I wanted to come so bad, but I was filming in Mexico City. I love reading ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY!
