I can access emotions very easily.

You can convey a lot of emotion with just some eyebrows and mouth movement.

Basic emotions can be conveyed through anything. As long as you show people that you're human, they'll relate to it.

It is a dangerous thing to have instant access to your emotions.

I can look into someone's eyes and feel like I know her better, versus a phone call, where you can't get that same type of emotion. That's why text messaging gets you in trouble: You can't bond, and emoticons explain only so much.

I love books, and all the best ones are people analysing their own emotions. You can learn from that.

We tend to think of extremes of emotions as registering, for example, you have to cry or laugh or get angry. But for the most part, we find it difficult to read each other most of the time. If you walk through the street, most people are pretty difficult to read. But they're thinking inside.

Everyone has emotions; you just learn to use then and be comfortable with them.

I want to explore the range of emotions it is possible to feel.

When we read a book, we have a blurry image that's kind of physical but blurry. But we have an emotional image also. We have an emotional connection to the character.
