“I like English, and I like writing essays, and that kind of stuff.”

I have a really great family, and when Im not filming, I go home and walk the dogs, take out the garbage, clean my room, all that stuff.

I don’t really like to talk about other people. I think people who have things going on in their lives

My phone is always in front of me, 24/7.

I made my first movie when I was five.

I’ve always been a huge fan of the ‘Pirates of the Caribbean’ movies.

What’s my favourite food? One you order out.

I like to have sleepovers.

A lot of the time I’m working with people who are older than me.

If you’re having a really bad day, it’s a great way to get out all of your frustration by doing a really angry or sad scene. That’s always a good release.

Never let anyone try and make you into something that you’re not. Remember what it is that you want, and always stay strong in that.

I think they have enough to deal with, they don’t need, you know, Abigail Breslin weighing in on their lives.

I never want to play the same character twice. I like to do different roles. I have fun with that.

So being able to be that person and then when you leave you’re yourself again

I want to do wardrobe. I want to do hair. I want to do makeup. I want to do writing. I want to do directing. I want to do all of it. I like it. And I want to do producing.

Well, my brother started acting before I did.

I get $13 [a week] now, because I’m 13.

I think that phrase is the most horrible phrase in the English language – ‘I don’t know.’ It’s terribly embarrassing.

He brought his food with him, he brought his language with him, he never spoke a word of English.

So I went to English school, secondary English school, so forget going to Mecca for my religious education

I saw this French woman, this English man in Italy. It was a film [Certified Copy] I knew well, but I had already seen it, and I was familiar with it, and I had no feeling of anxiety or responsibility toward it.

Getting chased home from the bus stop after school by English kids, boarding school, being targeted for praying to what they call Allah wallah ding dong.

The most beautiful words in the English language are ‘not guilty’.

Philistinism! – We have not the expression in English. Perhaps we have not the word because we have so much of the thing.

Say, has some wet bird-haunted English lawn Lent it the music of its trees at dawn?
