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

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 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.

Society makes suicide so romantic.

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.

Philanthropy is not about the money. It’s about using whatever resources you have at your fingertips and applying them to improving the world.

Telegraphs are machines for conveying information over extensive lines with great rapidity.

Errors using inadequate data are much less than those using no data at all.

Whenever I found something remarkable, I have thought it my duty to put down my discovery on paper, so that all ingenious people be informed thereof.

No man was ever so completely skilled in the conduct of life, as not to receive new information from age and experience.

When you listen, the benefit is two fold: You receive the necessary information, and you make the other person feel important.

Men more frequently require to be reminded than informed.

Information. What’s wrong with dope and women? Is it any wonder the world’s gone insane, with information come to be the only real medium of exchange?
