I heard people saying they were going to become millionaires by the time they were 25 - that's gross and obnoxious, but in California it's looked on as an asset.
I filmed seven movies in 2011 and I think that was a mistake. I pushed myself too hard and I want to be able to come to work each day and give 100 percent. I guess I found out what my boundaries are.
I was really overwhelmed by the amount of roles that I got offered that were carbon copies of what I did in 'Up in the Air.' I got every offer for every ambitious, unfeeling practically robotic character.
I am neither such a great songwriter or such a great singer that the world must hear my album. There's just no point to make.
I feel like you can't get an audience to like your character if she's actually cool, but you can if she's trying to be cool and sometimes fails.
I felt different at 29 because 29, to me, is 30. There are times when I still feel like an actual toddler in a grown-up - well, semi-grown-up - body.
I never have used a trainer. I'm slightly intimidated by the idea of somebody in my face.
I used to think that guys preferred tall women. But plenty of them like short girls.
I'm not big on lip color, but I like to have a little something.
I've never really gone for the razzle-dazzle types: no quarterbacks, no flashy guys, and no Prince Charmings.
If I took myself too seriously, I would be a mess every day because the world keeps my ego in check.
The music for 'The Last Five Years' is like running a 26-mile marathon, and singing Sondheim is like ballroom-dancing up Everest.
There's a difference between being an actress who can sing and being a Sally Song-and-Dance.
When you grow up middle class, you just always feel like you've got to be working, or you won't be able to pay the bills.
