People have a problem with me being different, but that propels me forward in life.
Unless you got a really good reason, you should be nice.
I don't get tired of hearing that somebody liked my work.
One person's crazy is another person's refreshing.
It's good to feel stupid sometimes and do things that are out of your comfort zone.
I put a lot of stock in the written word, and the power of it. That's what I love about acting and reading scripts. Words are really powerful. I don't believe that axiom at all - words can absolutely hurt you. Words can wound. They can do a lot of damage. I think they can do way more damage than sticks and stones. I'll take sticks and stones.
I'm naked in Esquire in August. I was naked on the set the other day. I'm always naked. I'm naked right now, in fact.
Mediocrity is underrated.
I certainly was never the pretty girl at school, but I can go to a lot of different places with this face.
I never know why people come up to me. I think a lot of them just get super-excited because they recognize me from TV but they don't remember where.
I do love my avocados, which are great for the skin. I eat pretty healthfully.
There's a lot of time sitting in movies, so you can put alligators in people's trailers in your spare time. So it [making a film] moves slower, which in some ways is great, because you can live with a scene and invest in it a lot. And in some ways it's hard, because sometimes you can start to lose your energy a little bit, but both are fun.
My favorite scene in all of movies is Gregory Peck in To Kill A Mockingbird: You see him where he's on the porch, and his face is almost completely obscured. I don't want to see his face.
Just when I got out of school, I seemed to get hired for a lot of dramatic things, and people tend to remember you how they've seen you the first time.
I always wondered what people thought of it because it looked so stupid to me on the page and I loved the other finale so I thought it was going to be really stupid but some people really liked it.
I haven't read the comic book. I didn't even know there was one until about halfway though. Helen Mirren and I were talking about that actually, who also felt kind of silly. When we had to run she was like, 'Oh God, we're both going to get fired.' The running sequences, it's a particular kind of humiliation because it's fun.
We're dodging bullets and this is right after we've just seen [inaudible] shot and we're running and the woman who John accused of being out to kill us and everyone thought he was kidding. When we see her she appears and she's after us.
I just want to make lunches and organize my kids' playroom.
I enjoy cooking and baking. Alicia Silverstone's vegan cookbook is awesome.
I just get to go to work with such great actors who are so talented, especially Elizabeth (Perkins). You are so wonderful and kind and good and wonderful and sexy and great, and I just want to make out with all of you.
The theater is who I am - it's where I feel the most inspired, the most at home, the most useful.
Look, I don't care if anyone likes me when it comes to my work. But I can be massively insecure in other parts of my life.
In college, my teachers were usually after me for going after comedy too much, leaning too much in that direction.
I never feel more useful than when I'm making my kids a bowl of soup.
I don’t think it’s that controversial. I’m really in favor of legalizing marijuana. I thought people would be more offended by [this series] than they are. I’m surprised they weren’t.
