“But even if I’m left high and dry at the end of this wild journey, just taking it is a great feeling.”

My parents were journalists and friends with writers, artists, and just a really interesting assortment of people, so I was exposed to all lifestyles from a young age.

I fell in love with theater there, and after graduation I moved to Los Angeles to pursue acting.

My parents said marrying was an optimistic thing to do in pessimistic times.

If I have to draw attention away from some hormone-induced acne on my chin, I put on a lot of mascara.

I guess for my skin, I clean it and moisturize and try to drink water. How boring is this though? I’m convinced that it comes from within. If you’re happy and healthy, it shows.

It was helpful to have the confidence of youth that came from a lack of desperation. I thought, ‘If I don’t succeed, I’ll go back to school and study.’

I do not tweeze my eyebrows. I’ve been letting them grow out for years. I try to fill them in wherever nature has abandoned me.

Documentaries are a powerful and effective way of bridging the gap between worlds, breaking through to new audiences that wouldn’t otherwise be engaged – in essence, not preaching to the choir.

I shaved the back of my head once and did the asymmetrical hair.

I tend to go with a daytime look, pretty natural, but I always fill in my eyebrows – I hate if I leave the gym and my eyebrows aren’t done; I’m just very uncomfortable with myself.

I’m now convinced that I’m a doctor. I mean, if someone says they have a pain, I’m like, ‘Well, that’s your spleen.’

In human years I am 29. In actress years I’m the ripe, promising age of 18 to 35. That’s how it works here in Hollywood.

I love eye makeup. I really like doing a cat eye, playing with liquid liners and different colors of liners, like emerald and deep blues, combining them with black.

At the end of your twenties, you realize you are inherently flawed, and that’s great, and that’s what makes you dynamic.

I used to play hooky from school so I could watch cooking shows.

Many casting directors won’t hire aspiring actors because you might be burning some chick’s headshot under the table so she doesn’t get the part.

I will be more than I was yesterday, even if that means I can’t take you with me.

If the world was ending, I think I would grab some Cinnamon Toast Crunch, a bunch of water, and I’d probably just I’d probably go crazy.

I got what I wanted then I threw it away why do I mess up the only things that want to stay.

At the end of the day, we’re all brothers and sisters in God. What people do is none of my business.

And maybe at the end, it’s not about the loss or victory but the moments in which, we put all the efforts into something.

At the end of the day, I just do my job. I love my art. But I genuinely want to change the world. I’m very generous, and I really want people to see that I am – that’s really it.

Being sad means being elite for sad can’t be those who struggle to make the two ends meet.

In the end, you have to protect yourself at all times.
