There is going to be a hundred thousand doors slammed in your face before one opens, so feel ok about taking rejection.
It doesn't matter if a critic pans or praises my movies, I am only concerned about that one audience member and what their experience is.
The minute I ever start thinking about what a character would do is the minute I bring my ego into play. It's the minute I'm putting a judgment on something.
We do have a choice at the end of the day to say yes or to say no. There have been things that I have passed on where agents at the time were like, "you're crazy, why would you pass on this," because it wasn't something that I personally wanted to be a part of.
The most beautiful thing is telling someone you love them, because you can only love another person if you love yourself
It's good to get out of the closet and talk about it and find out other people's views.
But especially if you have the wrong people within your circle. Truthfully, at the end of the day, no one cares about you in this business whether they are your agent or your manager or your publicist.
You have your private life and you have your public life, and just don’t let them interfere.
I think it magnified it. For me, I wasn't sheltered so I think it was magnified. Especially when you're a teenager and you go to high school and you're in the business and you are known.
There's another girl who was going to play Hilary Faye and luckily she wound up not doing it.
It doesn't matter what medium I perform, I just love to perform in general, if it's good work.
There’s a fear that grasps each individual and what they think is right and what they think is wrong.
I don't really prepare for roles. I just kind of do them!
They don't teach you just how to be in school. There's no class on that. There's no multiple choice test for Why Do I Feel This Way?
