“Success takes communication, collaboration and, sometimes, failure.”

I bizarrely think that this [Sin City] is the perfect date movie. If a guy took me on a date to see this movie, I would marry him, for sure. It’s bad-ass chicks and rad dudes, who are sexy, all over the place, and there’s so much cool action.

I don’t need to be famous. I’m not that ambitious. At this point, if I’m not sucked in, I’m never going to get sucked in. Being the so-called hot girl, I disconnect from that. It’s not that deep.

Mike Adams, you are simply the sexiest man alive. You have my vote in .

I’m really good at being sarcastic with guys. That’s the best way to hang out with them, because that’s what guys . They don’t want the quiet, prissy little things.

I’m much more of a risk taker. I’m more fearless now than when I was 18. I was much more self-aware and I cared too much about what people thought of me and now I really don’t. I probably should.

I loved my baby dolls when I was a kid. I used to pray with them and say good night to each and every one of them because I didn’t want their feelings to get hurt. I remember having that connection with my baby dolls.

I always try to do something for my husband that’s completely selfless, and something that I hope will rock his world in some form or fashion.

Being perfect is being flawed, accepting it, and never letting it make you feel less than your best.

When I work out, I have energy and feel good about myself.

Way too high maintenance to be in a relationship with an actor. I don’t need a man who spends as much time in front of the mirror as me.

Sometimes I don’t like my thighs or stomach, but whenever I get caught up in that, I always focus on the fact that I’m healthy now.

I am the good girl and I always play the good girl. It’s nice to do that.

It’s really, really, really difficult to have the same occupation as the person you’re with – especially when you’re both actors.

Parents try the best they can. They want the best for you. But a lot of their stuff is just their own. If you can pull yourself away from it and not always feel like they’re attacking you, then it’s easier to deal with.

I never fit in with my peer group. I never hung out with kids my age – I always wanted to hang out with my mom and her girlfriends.

I’m not one of those women with a really thin body. I have body fat.

I believe [the architecture firm] Herzog and de Meuron and our collaboration made the product the best it could be.

He is fearless and the way he comes to the music is like we share the same passion for what we do and with somebody from the West. In my opinion that would be a great collaboration.

The future of cinema and communications is all about collaboration and the decentralized control of storytelling.

Basically, I enter into it knowing we are collaborators.

The most abundant resources that we possess amongst the 1.5 million nonprofits in the United States are passion and knowledge, yet our most scarce resource is collaboration.

Filmmaking is such a collaborative piece of art that you can’t look to one person – you couldn’t look to me, you couldn’t say, ‘Because Vin’s in it, it’s this or that.’ It’s really all of us coming together for that period of time to try and make magic.

I always want another actor to shine in my scene because it makes the film stronger. I would encourage people to scene steal, because filmmaking is a collaborative effort.

I know when it comes to the actual narrative of my solo music, it’s its own thing. That’s why I went out of my way after ‘Crew’ to not do a bunch of collaborations.
