I get that some people just want to do work and keep their lives private. I think for me, it just felt like I needed to be open about who I am. It just felt like the right thing for me to do.

I just couldn't believe that it [Into the Forest script] had fallen into my lap, because I felt so incredibly connected to my character, and I understood her, and I really...I haven't had that feeling about a script since I had read Thirteen or The Wrestler when I was just like, No one else can do this. I just feel so passionate about it.

I've always had a real fascination with Alice in Wonderland and really related to it in some way. And since I was little, people always nicknamed me Alice, even total strangers. I do know I'm always in Wonderland. And I'm definitely just as curious. I don't mind being amongst the mad people, I enjoy it.

I try to stay out of the public eye as much as possible because I want people to be able to watch my films and not be distracted.

It was really cool to get to know her as a person and artist. And getting to act with her after a year of knowing her and be like, Oh my god! There's a whole 'nother thing here! It was really cool to be her friend and then see Ellen Page on the set.

People have misconceptions about Marilyn Manson, of course, but they can think what they want.

And, look, I'm sorry if I have blond hair and blue eyes and my boyfriend looks like a vampire. What do you want me to do about it?

I love walking onto the set and the blindfold is taken off and then everything I do is fresh and in the moment. That's why I loved working with Darren Aronofsky.

We trusted the writers and showrunners [in Westworlds] so much because they're so brilliant and the writing's so incredible. It really was like playing Marco Polo, where you just kind of followed their voice and they would lead you to water.

I'll never forget my 24th birthday when my tooth got punched out. And for a second I was like, it would be really hilarious if I sold it on eBay. But I can't, that's just too creepy. I don't think I can go there.

It was such a bigger picture [ Westworld] than what I thought it was. It's more of a revolution than a TV show.

There was something so cool about being able to carry this film [Into the Forest] together [with Ellen Page] and to play off of each other. It was like having the most worthy tennis opponent.

The secret lives of politicians are always shady. People need to accept the fact that their leaders aren't perfect. No one is.

I did my first nude scene in Mildred Pierce, and that was absolutely terrifying, but it was for an important part of the film and for a reason, and it's incredibly powerful. It's not gratuitous. I think the stuff they show on MTV is so much worse.

There's really barely any sex in [The Westworlds]. But there is a lot of nudity. And it was always described to me as being done in a way that was supposed to be kind of sterile and mannequin-like and dehumanizing.

I'm opening the doors, I'm buying dinner. Yeah, I'm romantic.

The most complicated character I have ever played - she has many, many, many layers that even I'm not fully aware of.

With bisexuality, there's so much out there in terms of what that means and there are so many definitions, and it's about finding out what's right for you.

I love the contrast of this side of [Dolores from the Westworlds] coming out, this tough fighter coming through this sort of Disney princess. There's something really powerful about that. But I was really excited to get some pants.

Dear God, I've done so many crazy hair colors and outfits and makeup looks where I look back and it's like, What the hell was I doing? You can't be afraid to make mistakes, you have to take risks. We all have those moments we look back on and wish weren't captured on film, but we're not alone in that.

We all just kinda did everything we thought we were supposed to do and girls dated the guys they were supposed to and did things with the guys they were supposed to.
