“When you’re playing a character in a book, there’s already a lot of pressure because all of the millions of people who have read the series have been able to envision and become very attached to the characters.”

My love for animals started before I can remember.

I have friends come over and we read plays out loud and I make paintings and I just do things all the time just so I don’t ever feel like I’m sitting around.

I’ve done a lot of independent travelling, which hasn’t been the best career choice, but it’s been a really great life choice.

I think we are all overcoming tiny obstacles every second of every day even if that means just a small shift in perspective.

Animals don’t have a voice, so I think it is our job to give them one.

I enjoy feeling physically strong, so maybe I’d like to be able to lift a building and launch it at someone.

What we do to animals, we do to ourselves.

I have nobody. I have surrounded myself with people who are fake just because I need to talk to somebody.

I think it’s time we take a step back and recognize that while we are hurting our animals, we are hurting each other, and we are hurting our planet.

We have such an amazing future ahead of us.

The frenzy of the little-girl culture is something very unique, and I can only say that because I was one. The obsession – I can’t really explain it. Everything is heightened to the maximum.

Reusing and recycling our materials is the most important thing we can do.

I think the greatest lesson I have just recently learned is how powerful the mind is, informing our decision making unknowingly.

Jackson [Rathbone] is the most artsy, creative and, I think, the most talented.

I don’t want any special powers. I’m powerless. I wouldn’t want to see into the future, I wouldn’t want to know what anyone was thinking, ever! And I don’t want to relive my past.

At the end of the day, that’s our sole purpose and our sole reason for existing, is to love somebody else.

Trials help us detach ourselves from the earth; they make us look higher than this world.

If you are attached to the things of this earth, you should give alms sufficient to enable you to punish your avarice by depriving yourself of all that is not absolutely necessary for life.

So much of modern politics is focused not on honest differences of policy but on personal attacks.

Can we be committed to the process of what we’re doing without being emotionally attached to the results of what we’re doing.

Be committed to the process without being emotionally attached to the results.

How, love and addiction can have similar strains – of attachment.

I am inclined to attach some importance to the new system of manufacturing; and venture to throw it out with the hope of its receiving a full discussion among those who are most interested in the subject.

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.
