- I like to play any character that allows me the freedom to explore it and teach the audience something they didn't know, and show them a journey they identify with...or be inspired, or moved. Anything that touches someone's heart is important for me.
- In my fantasy I was always the savior. I would come to 'Peanuts' land and save everybody. Charlie Brown would fall madly in love with me. Peppermint Patty was so jealous.
- It occurred to me the other day that I've made out with more people on camera than I have in real life!
- Redheads get so stereotyped. You're either exotic and wild or totally Victorian.
- When I was a kid, my dream was to be a farmer and marry Charlie Brown. I wanted to rescue him and make him happy. Besides, he was always lusting after the little redhead girl.
- Pianos tend to get better as they age, the more you play them. They grow into their sound.
- Acting is magical. Change your look and your attitude, and you can be anyone.
- I was so happy that it filmed in New York not only because it's an amazing city, but also because a lot of people across the world somehow started to think about New York as a dangerous place to be and envisioned it as some war zone after that happened.

- In my fantasy I was always the savior. I would come to Peanuts land and save everybody. Charlie Brown would fall madly in love with me. Peppermint Patty was so jealous.
- I wanted to do a movie about being really good at something, yet being socially awkward and not as advanced in your personal life as you are in your creative life.
- You have to really concentrate on piano or acting. You can't do both.
- My goal is to just keep playing roles that are different from the roles I've played before.
- John Waters has certainly gotten to a place in his life where he doesn't do anything he doesn't want to do. He's always been that way, but at this point, he's greatly respected for it.
- On-screen relationships are the best because you don't have to worry about saying the wrong things. And if the guy's got a girlfriend, or I'm not attracted to him, it's even better. It's just my character kissing his character.
- All of those art-based fields are similar in that they're all hard to make a living in and they all require an intense amount of training and discipline.
