“My mom and my dad wanted my brother and I to have a better life, you know, better education, better jobs. It was probably harder, much, much harder, for my parents. When you're a kid, you can learn a language much more easily; I learned English in less than a year.”
“I am very much a creature of habit, and I have no life consistency. None.”
“Very rarely am I attracted to characters that are 'woe is me.' I'm not a big fan of women that have to be the victim and need to be saved, at all times. I don't necessarily think that's how it is, in real life, and I don't think that's how it should be in films.”
“Always have a backup plan.”
“It's fun working on the set... I usually work about 10 and a half hours a day, and I also study about five of those hours. It can be tiring, but it's fun!”
“I wanted to quit the industry when I was eighteen and finish '70s', finish my contract on the show and go to college because I was pretty convinced that after '70s' and after being on a show for eight years that I would be very much pigeonholed for something specific that I didn't want to be a part of anymore.”
“Listen, I am such a nerd. I'm not one of those girls that goes, 'Ha, ha, hee, hee. I'm a nerd.' No, no, no - my brain mentality is the same as a 12-year-old little boy. The video games that I play, the things that I like to watch - I'm a Trekkie.”
“I love playing different characters and I love doing fun things and I love to entertain people, whether that be in a comedy or a drama. If I get you to laugh or I get you to cry I'm super stoked, as morbid as that might sound.”
“I think that an actor is more likely to be forgiven in the public's eye than an actress.”
“The thing about ballet that I never knew about is that it's one of the most excruciating sports that I've ever been a part of. I say sports because they train constantly, every single day.”
“I've said this before, but after 'That '70s Show' ended, I solely wanted do films that inspire me, and to work with people who make me better. I wanted to just surround myself with people who I think are better than I am, whether they're actors or directors or producers, so that I could learn from them.”
“I have an older brother who is 21 and attends UC Berkley.”
“I think that when a person is insecure about who they are or who they want to be, then it translates on screen, and the choices they make are all about perception.”
“I feel like every role you take, there's a part of you that obviously feels like you can do it. I don't know if perfect is the right word because I don't believe in perfection. I don't think it exists.”
“I had a snowboarding accident. I fell off a horse. I've had a concussion, a fractured rib... I walk into walls. I'm always bruised up.”
“I definitely hope to attend UCLA in a year, and major in business.”
“I don't live lavishly, so it's not like I have 20 assistants and travel privately and shop every day.”
“I stand by every movie that I did. I don't regret any decision I made.”
“I honestly think being single's great. Being in a relationship's great. It's all about the timing.”
“You want to be honest with a character and play it truthfully, and you want to be genuine with your character.”
