This is my costume. I'm a homicidal maniac. They look just like everyone else.
Christina Ricci
I like the way my own feet smell. I love to smell my sneakers when I take them off.
My dream role would probably be a psycho killer, because the whole thing I love about movies is that you get to do things you could never do in real life, and that would be my way of vicariously experiencing being a psycho killer. Also, it's incredibly romantic.
Naturally, my body language changes given whatever environment I'm in.
As long as we can tell stories about our ability to survive, the more we will hope, not self-destruct.
I am a Christian. I haven't really talked about that before. It is something very private. But I do pray and my beliefs are very important to me.
I stand up for other people, I'm very protective of people around me. If I feel like somebody is getting a bad rap or being unfairly picked on, I will stand up for them, absolutely.
As a teenager, my favourite rejection was, 'She looks too healthy,' which of course translates as, 'She needs to lose weight.'
I've been to therapists my whole life.
When I'm acting in a film that I'm not producing, I stay to myself.
I'm so glad I'm not 20 years old anymore. I was in a hurricane. I'm a lot calmer now. I don't cause destruction for myself and others everywhere I go.
I think the main reason a lot of child stars don't make it is that it's hard to see someone as cute and then all of a sudden see them as having more depth.
Most people don't walk around knowing what other people think about them, and I don't think it's healthy to know what faceless strangers who you'll never meet say about you.
I didn't use to think anything was worth keeping private. Now I do.
I would love to fly privately, but unfortunately, I don't. I don't summer anywhere either.
I'm a lazy, lazy girl.
I get so nervous. I happen to be socially awkward and shy. I spent a lot of my time as an adult not going places.
A director should cast a person who fits into their script.
All the roles are for boys. The girls' roles are either small or all the same. There's just nothing interesting.
I want a Mini-Cooper because it's fuel efficient, emissions efficient and all that stuff. It's small and better for the environment. I think that will be my next car.
I once ate McDonald's three times in one day.
I don't have life rage anymore.
I'm trying to just go with the flow and learn from the people around me.
I was a big sci-fi fantasy geek when I was younger... secretly, in my room.
I eat crap.
I was really bored and unhappy in school, and I used to act out and do horrible things.
I could easily exist on less money, but I like the way I live now.
You won't see me in a better mood than 4:00 in the morning on my way to work.
I certainly hope I'm not still answering child-star questions by the time I reach menopause.
I'm an actor who hates dialogue and the present day and reality.
Any obsession is dangerous.
I don't come from money.
My sister and I shared a bedroom our entire lives and I believe she discovered the Beatles when she was about 11 and I'm four years younger. So from the age of 7 until 17 we had nothing but Beatles paraphernalia in our room, even those little stuffed Beatles that went on stands that are dressed as the Sgt. Pepper band.
It's fun to be sarcastic, but now I'm able to express myself in a way that's much more sincere.
For years, I hated myself. I covered the mirrors in my house. I literally couldn't have a mirror in my room.
I've been to therapists my whole life. I find the less attention I pay to food, the healthier I am. Any obsession is dangerous. And a whole country that's obsessed with one thing, unless it's, like, jeans, it's very dangerous. Everyone's obsessed right now with carbohydrates in this country. It's ridiculous.
I think people who suffer from depression, unless it's post-traumatic, are probably going to struggle with it for their whole life.
I think I'm better at playing difficult than I am at being normal. And to me that's something I'm working on now. I'm not really that difficult or complex a person, so it's interesting to me that it's just so much harder for me to play an everygirl.
I think that I need to work on being comfortable at being normal, everyday-ish on camera. Unlike a lot of actors, I think that's the thing that I'm not so comfortable with.
I feel like some of the best talent is on TV right now, with the writing, acting and great directors. I've also been looking for the consistency of work that TV provides for you. And, I always thought it would be really interesting to live with a character for months, if not years.
I've been looking to do TV for a while. I've always done guest starring stuff. I've done a couple of multi-episode arcs, and I've always loved the experience.
We have so much pride in welcoming these passengers onto the plane, and they have so much pride in travel. It's something that I definitely always remember, when I'm playing a scene on the plane, just to imbue everything with that sense of excitement.
The whole growing-up process seems to have eluded me.
Every night I fell asleep to a different Beatles album. So I'm very familiar with the Beatles; Ringo was my favorite Beatle until I grew up and then changed. I made the switch over to George Harrison just in time to regain my cool.
I come from one of these hideous backgrounds where being sincere is like - ugh, you might as well kill yourself.
I've always been a really ambitious person.
I think I've always been interested in playing people who are judged very harshly.
There are a lot of theories about Shakespeare.
I guess I'm a workaholic!
I always knew that I was kind of bored; the regular life of a child didn't fit me.
