Yeah, I'm a geek. I read sci-fi and I watch sci-fi films. I love my computer and I love to fix it. I'm a total nerd. I literally am a 12-year-old geeky boy trapped in a 32-year-old woman's body.

Willow: Hey, clothes. Tara: Better not get used to 'em.
Amber Benson
I think any good literature, whether it's for children or for adults, will appeal to everybody. As far as children's literature goes, adults should be able to read it and enjoy it as much as a child would.
Amber Benson
There's no right way to be female or female-identifying. You can love clothes or you cannot love clothes. You can be a stay-at-home mom or you can have a career. You can do both. You can choose to have kids you can choose to not have kids.
Amber Benson
Life is short, and I'd rather be sitting in the poor house doing what I love doing than making a lot of money and being miserable. Life is very short.
Amber Benson
I am in an extended self-directed course of study. That is, I am in control of my own life.
Amber Benson
I wouldn't want to forget anything, even the weird stuff and the bad stuff. It makes you who you are.
Amber Benson
Acting is fantastic, but to be able to create a whole world on celluloid is amazing. It's like taking your dreams straight from your head and projecting them onto a screen.
Amber Benson
The acting is something that will always be a part of my life, but the writing gives me a lot more creative freedom. You're a pawn in somebody else's chess game, whereas as a writer and as a director, you get to call the shots. And that's very thrilling.
Amber Benson
I wanted to create a heroine that was flawed. I wanted her to be a real person. She's selfish, she's childish, she's immature and because I'm doing a three-book arc I really played that up in the first book. I wanted the reader to be annoyed with her at times.
Amber Benson
I'm not going to throw up or over-exercise myself into oblivion to look like a model. People tell me, 'You'd work all the time if you just lost twenty pounds.' What am I going to do, cut off my head?!
Amber Benson
I'm such a geek, I know all about mythology and I don't know Marc Jacobs.
Amber Benson
I think people are starting to think of me less as an actor and more as a writer.
Amber Benson
I always said that, when I grow up, I want to be like Joss Whedon: I want to have my own world.
Amber Benson
There is so much more to this world then outward appearances. Our society basks in the illusion of normalcy every day, and hides from the truth every night.
Amber Benson
I admit it: I'm a freak who sits obsessively in front of my computer typing my name into Yahoo Search over and over again. I'm a closet Amberholic. Please help me!
Amber Benson
I'm not a big hijinker. I'm a big sit-in-my-chair-and-read-a-book-er.
Amber Benson
It's all about what you feel on the inside - and I'm feeling like a chocolate chip cookie because I had about ten of them last night!
Amber Benson
Actually, I love mythology. When I was a kid I was obsessed with myth and I wanted to be a mythologist when I grew up. Then I realized I really just like stories.
Amber Benson
If I wasn't an actress I'd want to be a writer or else find a job where I got to read books and watch movies all day, everyday, for the rest of my life.
