Rose Byrne quotes about
You see someone on the street wearing an outfit and then it's on the cover of a magazine. I love. But, you know, I'm Australian, so I'm not too flashy or glitzy.
I loved performing; I was always trying to impress my siblings by being a clown. I think that came from being the runt of the litter.
My parents were so relaxed by the time I was growing up that I got away with a lot more.
TV is very much a producer and writer or creator-driven machine in the States. And I'm the kind of actor that needs to be pushed and have someone on my case a little bit, so I suffer from that.
Anything can happen. Anything happens all the time.
I have to rein myself in sometimes.
