I don't like going to the movies with people that talk a lot. They want to have a conversation or something.

I don't like other actors much. The industry tends to attract insecure, needy people.

It's not that I don't want to be famous. It's just that I don't feel like the burden of responsibility on selling a film should be on the actors.

I really like to hear actors talk about acting, but I don't really like hearing myself talk.

It's a difficult line to tread, where sometimes you go to the movies or you watch someone do publicity for movies or TV shows, and they do all the jokes that are good in the promotion of it, and you see the movie, and you're like, 'I kind of get it already. I'm not that psyched about it.'

Nowadays, in the contract that actors sign, you have to agree that you're going to do a certain amount of publicity-the hard part they don't pay you for.

You know, the hard thing about audiences not liking what a character does is that they sometimes take it out on the actor personally. That's something that you know when you become an actor or actress, but it's always hard to deal with when it actually happens.

People become actors because they want to hide, and it's not easy to talk about myself. I accept that a certain responsibility goes with being an actor in the public eye, but I haven't found a comfortable way to deal with it.

In Hollywood, you can't say anything bad about anybody or everyone is going to attack you. It's like you always have to put on a happy face, be the phony baloney, and I'm so not that. I never was that; I'll never be that. That is part of the business that I don't like.

There's an inordinate amount of attention put on actors. Some people want to make their lives public, but that doesn't mean everybody does.
