I thought maybe I'd be a female sportscaster. ”

I feel like handling a narrative in fiction is a wonderful way to teach stories that then open a pathway to reality and understanding. ”

I find rage to be the scariest emotion as an actor, for me personally, to tap into. I don't like anger, and I don't like conflict particularly in my life. I like everybody to be nice and things to be easy. ”

I made a sort-of living in the beginning of my acting career as a reporter. I think my very first job was 'Early Edition' as reporter no. 1, and for 'Light It Up,' I was reporter no. 2. ”

I've never, ever had a job that lasted for more than a few months. ”

There are people out there every day really fighting the fight for equal rights, equal pay, equal treatment. They're inspiring. ”

If you've raged, if you've mistreated somebody, if you've ever thought only about yourself - these are things that all human beings struggle with and judge themselves for. ”

I think human beings are funny, tricky things. ”

I can do a really loud monkey call. I can put both my legs behind my back. And I can stick my fist in my mouth. ”

I learned about not just being with someone because I don't want to be alone: being willing to be alone, and then find something that feels right and just reaching for companionship for companionship's sake. Not letting drama lead my life. ”
