I think my anorexia was to do with being a teenager, not being in films.
I think people are learning to actually aspire to be objectified.
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.
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.
The more that I can work in different mediums, the more I can grow, and learn from different actors and different types of actors and directors and different styles of acting and build a tool box.
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.
Recently, I've really responded to books that bring the magic of childhood back to us as adults.
As long as we can tell stories about our ability to survive, the more we will hope, not self-destruct.
I don't think I like characters who are afraid and ashamed of who they are.
I went through an awkward adolescence and had braces.
As a teenager, my favourite rejection was, 'She looks too healthy,' which of course translates as, 'She needs to lose weight.'
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 people who suffer from depression, unless it's post-traumatic, are probably going to struggle with it for their whole life.
For years, I hated myself. I covered the mirrors in my house. I literally couldn't have a mirror in my room.
I just want to be married, or just engaged. Basically, I just want a ring. And the tax break.
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'm getting older now, so I should think about a family, but certainly not tomorrow.
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.
I tend to fight for something that I believe in.
I certainly hope I'm not still answering child-star questions by the time I reach menopause.
I'm incredibly naive.
I'm very insecure.
I'm immature.
I always think that I've embarrassed myself.
As a kid, I was told to talk as much as possible.
I'm a lazy, lazy girl.
I eat crap.
I'm always in bed by 11 or 12 and people laugh all the time - they want me to hang out until two in the morning, but n-n-no, I need my nine hours.
I take Wellbutrin because I'm afraid to go into stores. I'm afraid people are going to yell at me.
The movies I made early on may not have been great, but they were all commercially successful.
