Kids are brought into show business because they are cute and see truth and they're very bright. But there's a sense of doing it because you want the adults to be approving of you. You want to make them happy.

An actor's responsibility is to play a character truthfully. That's their responsibility. That's where it ends. If they choose to use their reach and accessibility in order to further something that matters to them, that's their choice and that's great - but it's not for anybody to choose it for them.

I had no idea of the size of my bank account as a teen, and I didn't care to know. That was my mom's job, I figured that I would just find out when I turned 18. If you can't trust your mom, then who can you trust?

Day-to-day scheduling is always a conflict. You go, Oh, I want to go to that awards show because when am I ever going to do that again? But then you go, Yeah...except this other thing is more important. It's more the micro day-to-day stuff that becomes a daily task as opposed to worrying too much about the career.

I don't let it bother me too much if someone doesn't like me. I just figure there's no accounting for taste. It's not me, it's my acting. It's like if someone doesn't like someone's food, they just don't like my acting.

I'm very happy to make specific choices (as an actor), (but) you can't be married to them because you never know when the writers are going to be like, By the way, you have no brothers, you have a sister.

As actors we're supposed to be our character's advocate.
