“I would describe myself as emotional and highly strung. If something upsets me, it really upsets me. If something makes me angry, I get really angry. But it’s all very upfront. I can’t hide it. I’m also loyal and I hope I’m fun.”

I have always tried to be a woman who protects other women. I have a sister, I have daughters, I have girlfriends, and I was raised by a feminist mother.

I’m willing to fly close to the flame.

You can’t find peace by hiding from life.

I believe the experiences of life are more important than any film you make.

It’s good to have a little distance. If you discuss your love too much, it just damages it.

I love acting but I don’t like all of the other stuff associated with it. The interest in celebrities, the press, the Internet, when your identity becomes mixed up in the way people are perceiving you.

I’m not sure what the future holds but I do know that I’m going to be positive.

It’s my job as an actor to commit to the role and not – through my own inhibitions – run away.

I like exploring life and its complexities.

It took me a very long time to heal. It was a shock to my system.

The thing you hate about yourself tends to be the thing that everyone likes about you.

I think it’s important that we don’t all have to hold our heads high all the time saying everything’s fine.

People can tell you what to do, but ultimately, we’re all going to die, so how do you want to live?

It’s very easy for a couple to experience joy together. But when you experience pain together, it can lead to such depth and such union. That is when you fuse.

I think when you’re in a relationship where you really care for the other person, when they achieve their dreams it’s better than when you do yourself.

You’re either going to walk through life and experience it fully or you’re going to be a voyeur. And I’m not a voyeur.

The confounding of all right and wrong, in wild fury, has averted from us the gracious favor of the gods.

Deaf rage that hears no leader.

When will there be justice in Athens? There will be justice in Athens when those who are not injured are as outraged as those who are.

Wars spring from unseen and generally insignificant causes, the first outbreak being often but an explosion of anger.

Everybody has anger or regret in them one way or another. They all try different things to get it out. Some people go to psychiatrists. Some paint pictures. Some people talk it out.

I don’t eat meat because meat brings out negative qualities such as fear, anger, anxiety, aggressiveness, etc. Vegetables peacefully offer themselves to the earth when ripe, thus allowing a sublime and peaceful thought-consciousness.

I have inherited my fathers rage and my mothers silence. Everyday is a survival. I am a fire burning, just invisible.

I have a long list of things that make me mad.
