“What’s awful about being famous and being an actress is when people come up to you and touch you. That’s scary, and they just seem to think it’s okay to do it, like you’re public property.”

I’ve learned that it’s OK to be flawed.

I’ve loved making movies. I feel like I’ve been so lucky because I’ve gotten to be in movies that are some of my favorites, regardless of my being in them – like ‘Heathers.’

I’d always find the positive in someone.

You have good days and bad days, and depression’s something that, you know, is always with you.

As an actress, you want to try new things. You don’t want to repeat yourself. That becomes more important to you, as you get older.

I try to just pay attention to what I’m feeling. If something is scary to me, then that’s sometimes a good sign – although, sometimes it’s not.

I don’t use the Internet, but apparently you can find out everything on it.

For a long time, I was almost ashamed of being an actress. I felt like it was a shallow occupation. People would be watching my every move.

I feel my best when I’m happy.

I often get offered things that are so similar to things that I have done, and life is too short. When you make a film or a show, as you get older, that’s a lot of time to be doing something that you’re not absolutely invested in or in love with.

One thing you have to have when you act is energy.

In America, I don’t know how much longer the environment is going to exist. I sort of strongly believe that we’re in danger.

I’m not a drug user myself. I’m too little to take drugs – my body can’t take it.

The older you get, the more yourself you can be and the less worried you are about what other people think.

Scapegoating will go on forever. We need someone to blame – illegal immigrants, single moms, people in prison. We need someone to victimize.

I think it’s really important to have a life and have interests outside of this [movie] business, and not rely on this business to validate you as a human being. If you do that, you’re really in a dangerous spot.

You quickly realize that no matter who you’re talking to, how famous, brilliant or wealthy they are, they are just “people.”

We became the songs we wrote.

Nobody wants to end up super rich and famous – but divorced. I’m always clear on that and try to stay on the right side of the line.

A famous bon mot asserts that opinions are like arse-holes, in that everyone has one.

I was the Justin Bieber of the ’70s. Really, I was.

Good people are always so sure they’re right.

When in doubt, start from the top. -Jason Grace

Vee scowled at him. She is famous for that scowl. It’s a look that does everything but audibly hiss.
