I just feel like you have to go through this crazy transition if you're going to continue on with your career from a child star to an adult star.

I got my hair braided at this event once, and when I got the pictures back from it, I just became obsessed with them. They're kind of my thing now.

All of my friends are like, 'Look at me when I was a little kid. I was so cute!' and it's a picture of them in a tutu. I'm so terrified to show them my pictures, because it's me in boy shorts and a ponytail and my brother's shirt.

There are some kids I grew up with whose parents are in the industry, but my friends that I hang out with day-to-day aren't Hollywood.

I think my mother's family came on the Mayflower from England - D.A.R., you know.

We can pay the ecological debt by changing economic models, and by giving up luxury consumption, setting aside selfishness and individualism, and thinking about the people and the planet Earth.

My theme is, 'The spirit of friendship is the balance of life.' Not money. Not the World Series. It's friendship. The relationships I have with people, that's enough to keep me happy.

I had the two best teachers in the world. That was my family.
