I have always felt like I was just sort of waiting to catch up to the rest of myself.

When I'm acting, I just come up with people I've known, and I stick with it.

I think when things get hard with your family, it's really easy to want to isolate yourself. The world is so harsh, so when stuff happens outside, you want to go to your family, but when stuff happens inside your family, you sort of start to feel like, 'I'm alone. There is no place I can go to where just nothing will happen to me.'

I was from a tiny little island, which I always say is one corn field away from a horror film: it was, like, isolated, and everybody knew everybody, and you go to school with the grandkids of the grandparents that your grandparents went to school with.

Every single character I've ever played has a little bit of me in them just because every single human in the world has a little bit of everything in them.

I love my mom so much, and I always have, but I was definitely a monster to her a lot during my teen years.
