Is every moment of our lives built into us before we're born? If it is, does it make us less responsible for the things we do, or is the responsibility built in too?
I've been a ballerina since I was two, but I've always wanted to be an actress.
I have a weird vision of relationships because my parents have known each other since second grade, and they got married right out of college.
I love the feeling I get when I'm on a set; I love reading the scripts, playing the characters, getting to be someone else.
People recognize me all the time. I think it's really nice. I don't mind it at all. It feels kind of surreal when people know who you are and I think that it's really cool.
You have to be totally one hundred per cent committed to act. I do value everyone else's advice, but ultimately I have to listen to myself.
When you're acting you put so much of yourself into working. As much fun as it is, it's still hard work and it's still a challenge.
When I'm in front of it, it's different than anything else. It's a different feeling. Thoughts are just going through your head. You're not even really thinking about other things or what you are going to do next.
I have always wanted to act ever since I was a little girl. I would put a blanket under my shirt and pretend that I was pregnant. Then, I would go through childbirth.
