It's kind of amazing how well you can get to know someone without talking.

I think most people would struggle to define their whole relationship with just one label - like: my girlfriend, boyfriend, brother, sister, confidantes, whatever - but in those moments, there's true joy in each other.

I do try to stay open and stay as present as you can be.

I would love to have read about myself being compared to Lauren Bacall.

I didn't have cable when 'Breaking Bad' started, so I came to it late and kept waiting for a friend to watch it with, and could not find a single person who was not already into Season 3 and didn't refuse to start watching it from the beginning.

I know you're supposed to be thick-skinned in this business, but I'm not. I kind of like to hang on to being vulnerable.

I've had the great fortune of working with incredible people on many shows.

I want to let all men and women know: Try going to a party or a dinner where you're completely fine with silences, and you don't fill them just to fill them. It's exhilarating and terrifying.

I think I would like directing. I really like coming at the work that way.

You can tell when someone on TV who's supposed to be struggling to pay back loans is clearly wearing a Gucci suit or tailored to perfection.

Just playing someone who's not concerned with people's comfort levels is so freeing.

I love how deceptively simple 'love interest' is, you know? Because it encompasses quite a lot, when you think about it.

Everybody is grappling with their own moral compass, and that needle, like any needle, can't just stick. It's always floating a little bit, and depending on where you're standing, it's hard to read.

I'm often compared to Alan Rickman. I wish.

I don't like time off - I would prefer to act maybe 364 days a year.

I don't ever read chat rooms, because if you've got sixteen nice things, number seventeen is always the person that just wants to be contrary.

My first love is definitely performing, but I just love storytelling, and that's another aspect of it.

There are worse things than getting pigeonholed in Hollywood.

I think part of real intimacy is being able to leave the room mad, and knowing that the other person will be there when you get back.

To choose to be silent in any scene sometimes has more notes in my script than when you chose to speak.

I try not to get too far ahead of myself.

I've gotten to a place where I'm better at curbing your ego, which usually happens when you're feeling super small and scared about whatever you're seeing, and you want to go read, 'Oh, I hear there's a really good article about me.' I've gotten better about knowing that's not going to end well, usually.

I loved Albuquerque! And we were there during monsoon season, which I didn't know was a thing outside of, like, the Far East.

The women I grew up with didn't have a different purse to match all their outfits.

I enjoy social media so much, and I love, love, love Twitter.
