What I'm doing is making sure that I have a balance, and that allows me, I think, to be a better actor and to more easily and quickly access all of the emotions on the scale. I make sure that I read a book on the weekend or read something or do my knitting or do the things that I need to do for myself, like 'Game of Thrones.' Get that balance.

I'm not a wallflower, and I encourage girls to live that way.
-
Everybody has that: everybody knows what it's like to go home and then regress and not be running from something, not like who you were when you were home. I think everybody relates to that.
-
I've always lived out of a suitcase. I was in a new city every three months. When I was a model, I traveled the world, and as an actor you're traveling from movie set to movie set. So I've never been in one place long enough for anything super-bad to happen.
-
I didn't want to play the wife of some guy my dad's age.
-
Besides boutiques, I love H&M. Affordable and adorable.
-
To be honest, I didn't love the high-fashion world because models aren't always treated that well. I was a scrappy kid from a farm, and that world felt a little snobby. But I was grateful for it, and my photo shoots now are really fast because I know my poses.
-
I'm not conventional. I try to be raw and vulnerable and gross.
-
After I've knitted for a while, I feel like I just woke up from a nap. And what's awesome is that then you have a product! You have something you made with your hands!
-
I'm very into dresses, shoes, and makeup.
-
It's hard to fight in high heels or even jeans that are too tight. You can't kick in skinny, skinny jeans.
-
I was always loud and obnoxious and giggly and funny.
-
The most rewarding thing is having a job that you love. It's not a luxury that everyone in this world enjoys.
-
When you prepare for something, you can then play around; you're not as worried about remembering your lines because you already know them so well. That's where you can find the freedom. So I'm all about prep work.
-
Netflix is like sitting at the cool kids' table. Netflix is amazing. We're the biggest fans of not only working there but of the company in general.
-
I think it's important to be flexible and free, and you can't be free and spontaneous if you don't know what you're doing.
-
Jessica Jones is such a great part, and I do serious work on it. I feel really creatively fulfilled.
-
For escape, I love popcorn thrillers that you can read in a weekend, like 'Sharp Objects' and 'The Woman in Cabin 10.'
-
I didn't know how to throw a punch - why would I? Who knows how to throw a punch? Now I do it all the time, and it makes me feel strong.
-
Different is good. Different is great!
-
I've been bouncing around from comedy to drama and TV and film.
-
There's only one person for every job. You can try all you want, but if you're not right for it, you're not gonna get it.
-
I'm a lanky girl, naturally.
-
I love 'House of Cards,' I love 'Bloodline,' I love 'Orange is the New Black,' so I had written on my refrigerator that I was looking for 'groundbreaking television on Netflix.'
