“And I think a lot of us have fantasies of going back to where we're from, or when we do go back we're so nostalgic about it.”

“There is a lot of parenting that's completely out of your control, but I think we live in an era right now where we think if, God forbid, you couldn't talk to someone, you would flip out - you know what I mean?”

“I like exploring both the light parts and the dark parts of a single person. And all of those shades tend to come out most acutely in stories about families.”

“I have a two-year-old at home, and my whole life is - besides revolved around keeping this little person alive, just watching them on the stairs and eating food and everything of every minute of every day - you plan what time you're going to bed so that you can be your best self first thing in the morning.”

“I've had friends who did pilots, and I'd say, 'What happened to that?' and they'd say, 'It didn't go,' and it literally goes into a void of nothingness because no one gets to see it. All that money and talent and time put into it.”

“I feel like, in my 20s, I was putting my hair in a ponytail and pinching my cheeks and raising my voice an octave. So I feel more comfortable being a woman than I did being a young ingenue.”

“I do feel there is a very rabid young base for 'Black Mirror' that will very much identify with the daughter character because of the invasiveness they feel with their parents trying to control their moves on social media.”

“Thinking about it, you know, our phones are everything. They're kind of benign.”

“There's something to be said for being given a tremendous amount of freedom as an actor.”

“I think what's so brilliant about 'Black Mirror' is that it is a mirror into our own messed-up psyches.”

“I grew up in the suburbs.”

“I think you're always drawn to what you love, and I'm always really drawn to things that feel really real and really true to me. I love things that make me think of things in a way I hadn't, and I love looking at people in the world in a way that I hadn't. And sometimes big, huge stories do that for me, but I think I am drawn to smaller ones.”

“I don't want to put a pause on the rest of my life; I'm really enjoying getting older and the wisdom that comes from that.”

“I haven't been really guilty of being an uber helicopter parent; I took the baby monitors out when they were three months old because I thought that was an invasion of their privacy.”

“There's nothing scarier than just having a moment where you looked away and lost your child.”

“I just don't spend maybe enough time figuring out my place. Maybe I do in the world, but not so much in Hollywood.”

“I loved Barbara Stanwyck and Katharine Hepburn.”

“I know more about 'Moana' and 'Coco' these days than I do about anything hip and cool like 'Black Mirror'.”

“I'm astonished by how much journalists stay with the story, try to get to the truth of the story, maybe give years of their life to it, maybe go over to Syria, maybe lose their life. Then, the next day, it's a new story.”

“The more fears that we're exposed to, the more fears that we are handling every single day, asks us to exert more and more control over our lives.”
