“Whatever you do, be happy with you. Don’t conform. You are who you are, and you shouldn’t change that for anybody.”

Animals in general have always been my passion, project, crusade – whatever you want to call it!

I don’t know if I’ve ever been in a clique.

My philosophy with my career is mostly to just mix it up with a little bit of everything in moderation. And that’s what makes my job so great.

No matter where you are or where you grow up, you always go through the same awkward moments of being a teenager and growing up and trying to figure out who you are.

I don’t have a TV at my house. I literally do not. I have a television, but I don’t have anything plugged into it, though. I watch DVDs.

Don’t worry about everything and really enjoy the moment.

Is that I get to constantly do different things, put on different hats, be different people, and mixing up the genre really lends itself to that.

Whether it’s teaching me a new way to cut on a wave or teach me a three-point conversion or teach me how to dribble a soccer ball. There’s something really cool about that.

Whereas if you have the chance to create and produce your next movie that keeps you busier, it gives you more options and hopefully enables you to make the type of movies you’re passionate about.

In general I like a guy who is athletic, somebody who can teach me something.

I was never part of that cliquey girl drama. Most of my friends were guys growing up, so I was never part of that whole toxic energy. It seemed like way too much hassle.

Seeing my face on a poster is surreal. You look at it and it’s not quite like you, if you know what I mean… it’s almost a third person kind of thing. I still find it strange.

The ocean is such a huge, beautiful thing that I feel like we all take for granted.

I think dates considered super corny and cheesy – whether it’s going bowling or miniature golf or something where you can be competitive and just have fun with each other – those always make the most memorable dates!

In my own personal time, horror films freak me out too much, so I tend to steer clear of watching horror films on my own.

I wanted to be more hands on. Otherwise, every time you finish acting in a movie you have to almost go and beg people for the next job.

I’m eighteen years behind in my ironing.

To be desired is perhaps the closest anybody in this life can reach to feeling immortal.

I don’t listen to what art critics say. I don’t know anybody who needs a critic to find out what art is.

Hardly anybody ever writes anything nice about introverts. Extroverts rule. This is rather odd when you realise that about nineteen writers out of twenty are introverts.

I admire anybody who has the guts to write anything at all.

In the closing seconds of every game, I want the ball in my hands for the last shot – not in anybody else’s, not in anybody else’s in the world.

Anybody I’m dating, I don’t want them to talk about my music. I don’t talk about my music to them.

If anybody felt worse than I did, it was Amos. I had just enough magic to turn myself into a falcon and him into a hamster (hey, I was rushed!)
