I never, ever wanted to be an actor.
I've never worked with an actor that I did not like.
Acting's entertainment. It's not brain surgery.
I have just wanted to be an actress. That's always been my goal. I didn't want to be famous.
I didn't go to L.A. because I wanted to move to California. I went to L.A. to work as an actor.
Once I was in L.A., I realized anyone could act. Why not give it a shot? I started going to a ton of acting classes, and I found I had a real passion for it, probably the biggest passion I've ever had in my whole life.
As an actor, it's always been good to be working at all.
I want to be an actress when I grow up. Actually, I don't want to wait until I'm grown up. I want to be a child actress. I want to be an actress before I'm 13.
I never went to drama school, so that was more like I was getting away with it.
Acting is great. It's so much fun. It's a job where you literally get to do something that's a great experience, and then you try a new experience, and you take things from all of it.
I think for a lot of people, acting becomes a lifestyle, especially when you're living in Los Angeles.
I'm just an instinctive actress, I've never had a lesson in my life.
I never thought about being an actor. I was just going to play music and baseball. That’s all I was going to do. To this day, that’s what I do. I just added movies to it.
I started doing roles and working with people that I really respected and became passionate about the art form of acting. And I'm still trying to figure it out. Still learning.
Acting is something that I couldn't recommend to anyone because the odds of it working out are so insane. I don't know how it worked out for me. I had no connections to this industry. I had no ins anywhere.
Asking about acting to me is like asking about junior high.
About actors' lives... I'm not the person to ask. I don't live an actor's life and I really don't know. I probably read less about actors' lives than you all do. So, I'm in the dark about all of that, sorry.
As an actor, you can't be off the market for too long.
I've always had an itch for acting and a passion for acting, but never really got to dabble into it too much, and now I can say I'm officially an acrtress.
I'd like to be a working actor. It sounds really trite, but there really are no small parts, only small actors. And so as long as I'm a working actor, I can improve.
I never applied to any acting schools. I don't know if that's just bad reporting, or - sometimes I just make stuff up.
I wanted to be an actor my whole young life. My dad was an actor, obviously - he won an Academy Award, but I had no idea what was involved. I had all the wrong ideas about acting.
I was always acting. I was doing after-school plays and stuff like that. But I wasn't doing well in any of the schools, so by ninth or tenth grade, I ended up going to a boarding school.
Acting is like sex: you either do it and don't talk about it, or you talk about it and don't do it. That's why I'm always suspicious of people who talk too much about either.
I've always considered myself an actor, but I wasn't making a living as an actor.
