My God, I'm so in love with my boyfriend.
Don't let other people's conversations about what you're doing or you've done be part of your own conversation.
Girls are scary. Large groups of girls scare the crap out of me.
Success is always something completely different to people. I feel like I've succeeded, if I'm doing something that makes me happy and I'm not lying to anybody.
There's no reason to regret anything. Regret is a waste.
What I really mean is that actors do the interview process because they have to. It's a good bargain: If I can do this part then I'll sell it. I just wish it wasn't me who had to do it because it feels very unnatural.
You know what? I don't care. I'm going to do what I want to do.
There's nothing stronger than a woman protecting her child
One of the greatest struggles of becoming an adult is figuring out what you want to do and what makes you happy. The courageous thing is to stick with it and see it through and see if you were correct.
Once you have done with school, you realise that it is just a smaller version of life, and really I have felt that I should have been an adult since I was aged about five.
It's amazing to realize that a lot of the insecurities I had when I was younger have pretty much disappeared.
Judging a person does not define who they are. It defines who you are
Nobody lived my life. Nobody cried my tears. So don't judge me.
I love people and want to be good to people. If I'm in restaurant and somebody doesn't treat a waitress right, I literally will leave. I will unfriend you. You are not my friend anymore.
I want to make books. I want to take pictures and then write all over the pictures. And then I don't have to say a complete story, because I have the picture, and I have just a word.
I think it's cool to come out of somewhere where you're being pushed into this mold and then you figure out in that who you are.
I think to be a good director you have to be a good person and you have to care about people.
I think we want to be around people that kind of push us and inspire us and maybe teach us.
There's an idea about who I am that's eternally projected onto me, and then I almost feel like I have to fulfill that role. Even when things come out of my mouth, I want to be sure I'm saying exactly what I mean.
When you can literally Google anything, you don't feel like you have to go see it in person. You can do a lot of traveling in your bedroom, but you're not touching anything and you're not feeling it.
Sure, 'Twilight' is really huge right now and everybody's freaking out over it, but it will go away soon and I will be back to doing what I'm used to doing: weird little movies that nobody sees.
The strangest part about being famous is you don't get to give first impressions anymore. Everyone already has an impression of you before you meet them.
There's no way to be prepared for a conversation with someone you don't know about something that means the world to you.
I think it's ridiculous that you need to look a certain way to be conventionally pretty.
You don't need to give reasons for the things you do- you just have to do what you want. And sometimes the thing that seems messed up to everyone else is what's right for you. You have to do it and not be ashamed of it.
There are always a lot of leading questions and opinions. Of course, our work is creative, and it's subjective.
There are things that directors know about me that people shouldn't know.
You can't really be too calculated about everything in life.
I don't want to be Angelina Jolie. Not that Angelina Jolie is not the most talented, beautiful, successful, amazing, admirable person who does good things for the world, but I don't want to be a movie star like that.
Hateful, racist and ignorant remarks. When I hear people criticize without knowing the context, it makes me boil inside.
