I would love to work with Quentin Tarantino - he's my number one. My ultimate. I would love to work with Paul Thomas Anderson, Alexander Payne - Pedro Almodovar wouldn't be too shabby. There are so many good directors, but those are some of my favorites.
-
What actor do you really take seriously who becomes a singer? It's kind of ridiculous. I can't think of anybody.
-
I'm happiest when I'm just hanging out with my friends... it really doesn't matter what we do.
-
I would have loved to have been in a Hitchcock movie.
-
I've always been someone who is pretty hard on herself. But I've lightened up a lot.
-
When I'm working, I always listen to music to zone everyone else out.
-
In high school I had a boyfriend who was super into rap, so I was into Too $hort and Wu-Tang for a little while. And my best friend's older brother would sometimes drive us home in this pimped-out truck, and he'd play all his dirty rap music. We thought we were really cool.
-
I'm always looking for that movie that feels like it's hitting me where I need it.
-
You really can't explain how you do the things you do. I can't, anyway. I love certain actors, but sometimes they say the stupidest things about technique. I don't want to say something stupid.

It's hard to get lost in a scene, to get into a character when everyone's standing around you on the set.
-
When you feel good is when you're not afraid to feel the worst.
-
I liked the girly cartoons. I was very much a girly-girl.
-
You know how people say awards don't mean anything? Hello! I think the energy around them makes everyone cuckoo.
-
I would always rather do a mediocre script with a great filmmaker than a great script with a mediocre filmmaker.
-
I think the best thing about my job is that I have my life documented, which not many people get to have. They have a photo here and there and maybe some video footage from a birthday. My kids will be able to see me growing up.
-
People always tell me, 'Don't work so much', but I can't help it. I feel like all the things I've done are important to get to this adult stage and now I'm getting all these adult offers, so it's working.
-
The filmmaker is really important to me: it could be their first film; it's not just about their reputation, but I have to really believe in them.
-
You need your family in this business. It's one of the most important things to keep you grounded. You come home and your mom's like, 'Clean the kitty's litter box.' It's not like it's all about me.
-
My grandmother lives with my mother in a gorgeous house in the San Fernando Valley. I am afforded these luxuries, and I'm very young.
-
I don't gossip about myself.
-
It's weird doing red carpets; it's uncomfortable. But you can have a sense of humor about it.
-
When you're little, you're open to things. It's not like you get into this rehearsed zone when you're a child. At first you play different sides of yourself. And I think it will be really exciting one day to have a character to go into that's not anything like me whatsoever.
-
Why would I cry over a boy? I would never waste my tears on a boy. Why waste your tears on someone who makes you cry?

I think most human beings go through some sort of depression in their life. And if they don't, I think that's weird.
