When you are desperate, it's usually because of fear.

I didn't want to be an actress when I was younger - not even when I was older, to tell you the truth.

Beauty and youth can stay inside, but it doesn't outside.

If I had to design a career for myself, I would have done comedy.

We all do things where we don't care about other people. And we deal with it in whatever ways we can, denial or make excuses.

I always go into a film situation depressed and fearful.

Maybe it's that I'm naive, but I don't think of myself as an age.

I was never the kind of person who cared much what people thought about me.

I'm always drawn to melancholy personalities.

I am self-conscious, and I'm aware of my body. But I struggle with America's limited idea of what perfection is.
