“I never really wanted to write and wanted to focus on acting.”

I’m young but I’m not stupid.

I want to make people laugh.

There are some different things I’m writing and developing, but I don’t know where they’ll go. They’re fun stuff that I would be in and are written in my voice, for me.

I’m not a stand up at all, it’s such a fear of mine. My sister does it, and she’s really great at it.

My dad was so much fun growing up.

They say an actor is only as good as his parts. Well, my parts have done me pretty well, darling.

I had heard about how people struggle and how hard it is to get into acting. But I did not care because it’s something I love.

I think we need to get back to truth-based news. It won’t be easy, but we better do it because otherwise we’re not acting on information.

Singing is about telling a story. When you are onstage, you get to be your own self… When acting, you’re someone else.

As it must not, so genius cannot be lawless; for it is even that constitutes its genius – the power of acting creatively under laws of its own origination.

My first inspiration for acting came from the first episode of ‘Hannah Montana.’ That’s when I knew I wanted to be a singer and an actress.

I was acting with all my childhood heroes: Meryl Streep, Saoirse Ronan, all of those amazing women.

We need to practice acting in spite of fear, in spite of doubt, in spite of worry, in spite of uncertainty, in spite of inconvenience, in spite of discomfort, and even to practice acting when we’re not in the mood to act.
