That's what I love about acting and love and drama and art: that humanness we all share.

I feel so blessed to get to do what I love to do and work with so many wonderfully talented people, ... The best part is I get to go home to my most precious family.

Rarely in film acting do you get to do a scene for very long.

Our perception of celebrities in Hollywood is not the reality. The reality of our lives is so much like everyone else's life. We have family members we love, everyone gets up in the morning, they have three meals a day and they go about their business.

There's kind of a time you get warned about where the rug gets pulled out from under you: beyond ingenue, before you get into character stuff.

I don't have any regrets, because I think life is like a creek. It kind of meanders along, and you instinctively do the things you are meant to do. There's no great plan except doing really good scripts, meeting great filmmakers. And I have to have something that I can bring to the role.
