I've never really had the opportunity to play something that's a complete departure from me yet.

I read YA novels constantly, so I really want to be in a young adult rom-com, but I worry that I'm aging into the parent role, which is a little scary.

Playing tough characters just comes easy for me. It's not who I am in real life, so I love going to work and pretending to be something I'm not. I love all the action and confidence. But when I finally go do a rom-com, I hope my fans will support me.

When I was younger, it was like, 'Yay, lesbians love me!' I didn't know there was a responsibility that came with it.

We leave TVs on in our house. I listen to my record player constantly to just hear music. I'm really intrigued by this idea of solitude.

I looked at my parents when I was 17, and I said, 'I'm moving to L.A.'

As people, right now, we're so over-stimulated in this world that I don't know what I'd do in Wyoming. I really don't know what I'd do. I would probably have a heart attack because I'd be so lonely, and I'd actually have to listen to myself think. That's a terrifying prospect for myself, and I'm sure many other people as well.

I was planning that whole athletic slide into Stanford rather than actually getting a 1450 on my SATs.

I fought for a long time on 'Battlestar' to let my hair grow out. It was very frustrating because every single person on the show was changing their hair. It was not fair.

People associate girls with long blonde hair with the girls in 'Clueless' or 'Legally Blonde.' You can't be smart and educated and have an opinion because you are supposed to be stupid.
