With every project, you feel like you're trying to find your place to vent. For any actor, that's typically the feeling that drives you to do it.
I don't say I'm not magnetic to try and sound self-deprecating. I'm just not. Though I actually love people. I would like to meet more people. I know no one.
I just really am trying, trying, all the time. But I like to be scared. I love to suddenly feel out of control.
All I try to do in the press is to be honest about something that I really care about.
It's impossible to always get across what I'm trying to say, but, if I just stay honest, then I'm not going to look back on any of these interviews and wonder what I was trying to do or be.
I've just grown into not having to care so much and to not try to think that I'm going to be able to plan out the way that everyone perceives me. There are no false impressions. Everyone's impression of you is going to be what it is in that isolated moment.
As soon as I stopped trying to control everything that came out of my mouth and every picture that came out, that's when I became so much happier.
There are things that directors know about me that people shouldn't know. But everyone's really different. I've worked with women who I've never wanted to tell anything about myself to, and I've worked with guys who have been pouring wells of emotion. So emotional availability is not a gender-specific thing.

I'm not the type of person that just needs to feel concrete and like nothing's going to change. I revel in the change.
I'm approaching the idea of taking on a responsibility as great as saying, "I'm good enough to be in your movie." It's a huge statement to make, and every time I do it, I think, "Is this the right choice?"
One of the greatest struggles of becoming an adult is figuring out what you want to do and what makes you happy. The courageous thing is to stick with it and see it through and see if you were correct.
I learn a lot with actors that I don't think are good. Every experience shapes you. I've had experiences with actresses - and I say actresses because there's just a woman thing - that have achieved what she's achieved, by means that I can't understand.
The best aspects of every vampire, with all of their gifts, what makes them really special is just an enhanced version of what they were when they were human.
