“Society makes suicide so romantic.”

I was raised to believe that religion is a beautiful thing, but it’s fiction.

I don’t want to preach, and I don’t want to tell people what to do.

I was exhausted and going through a terrible depression.

When you finally accept that it’s OK not to have answers and it’s OK not to be perfect, you realize that feeling confused is a normal part of what it is to be a human being.

Looking back – I did have a lot of success and a lot of great opportunities earlier in my career.

I love books and going to bookstores. My favorite sound is the sound of the needle hitting the record.

I’m very attached to movie theaters and I love going to them. Nothing will ever replace that. It’s very romantic and beautiful. I used to want to live inside of one, with a bathtub, a bike and a bed, and just watch movies.

You can’t pay enough money to cure that feeling of being broken and confused.

Weird people follow you in the streets, you can’t sit alone in a restaurant or a cafe and read a book in peace, and I think everybody values those moments of being alone.

You try to get out there and live. I’ve always had good friends who’ve been very supportive and help make me feel good and grounded because I’ve never felt attached to the film industry.

I think it’s important to have as much as a normal life and take the time to get perspective because it only helps your work in the long run.

It’s just people should realize that the celebrity aspect of being an actor is very rarely enjoyable for people like me who would always rather go unnoticed and disappear into the crowd.

I’m quite comfortable looking at myself in movies, probably because I’ve been doing it for so long, since I was a kid. So I sort of watched myself grow up and go through adolescence, like, basically on camera.

I am not a person who can really sit around and think about regrets because with every bad experience that you have, there is weirdly something good that comes from it.

It’s an indication of how cynical our society has become that any kind of love story with a sad theme is automatically ridiculed as sentimental junk.

As an actress, you go where the stories are. I don’t really care where it’s seen, at this point. I just want to tell good stories and do good roles that I haven’t done before.

In poetry, everything can be faked but the intensity of utterance.

Remember that what has once been done may be done again.

Acting is all about honesty. If you can fake that, you’ve got it made.

The most important thing in acting is honesty. If you can fake that, you’ve got it made.

The faking of feelings is a sin against the imagination.

You’ve got to be honest; if you can fake that, you’ve got it made.

Eclecticism. Every truth is so true that any truth must be false.

If I’m doing a fake movie, it’s gonna be a fake hit.
