“I’m a bit of a gypsy. I live everywhere; I live out of a bag.”

When I look for roles, I am looking for incredibly powerful women.

We tend to kind of write women out of history.

Girls have that wonderful thing where they try to throw each other off, not wanting to appear too eager.

I think everyone’s always interested in playing a spy, right? That’s something we grow up admiring, which is so strange, but it’s just a very clever and quick world that we all want to be a part of.

You never see a normal spot, a bag under the eye or an unplucked eyebrow, because that’s not how Hollywood works.

I grew up in a very loud and dramatic household, and we loved being in the spotlight.

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

I got a really good insight into the world of wrestling.

There’s always going to be pressure, and there’s always going to be an area where you disappoint. As a storyteller, you have to understand that.

I can’t remember a Friday when I was younger when I wasn’t eating a pizza, flirting with the barman.

Why shouldn’t there be more epic, brilliant female characters onscreen?

The biggest thing about ‘Lady Macbeth’ is the fact that people are so surprised that this woman is so amazing, and really, it shouldn’t be so amazing that this incredible character is on our screens.

I hope to create characters that people want to watch – and they either want to be or are, or it’s something that they recognize.

If I can make my mark just a little bit, then great.

Something that I’ve always been really keen on representing is some honesty with the way that we view ourselves.

I know that my way of tackling a character is very different.

I’m an ugly girl, My face makes you hurl, Sad I have it, I should bag it. Acne everywhere, Unwanted facial hair. I’m a relation to Frankenstein’s creation.

It is my fondest wish that in the fullness of time, the American people will look back on the Franken presidency as something of a mixed bag and not as a complete disaster.

I bet they didn’t tell you that was in the gift bag.

I fight, knock them out, have some sex and Monday I’m back to hitting bags and kicking ass.

A structured bag, statement jewelry or a cute scarf can add polish to any outfit!

Speaking of sleeping bags, has anything ever had a less creative name?

A beautiful literary collection that tells of today’s country doctor, somewhat removed from our romantic black-bag image of days gone by, but still fulfilling an essential need in caring for spread-out populations.

We are not all connected. We are bags of skin. We are all separate bags of thinking skin.
