I remember seeing Janet McTeer in A Doll's House. My grandmother took me and we had seats in the very back row, but her performance was so powerful - it was very accessible. I felt like I was much closer than I was.

Yoga has stopped me from destroying my joints after running. It slows me down. My brain and body can go into overdrive - yoga teaches me to focus on the moment and not get ahead of myself.
Julia Stiles
I’ve really turned a corner recently in terms of not taking work too seriously, so it is much easier for me to not take my work home.
Julia Stiles
I tend to gravitate toward the more powerful roles. As opposed to the doe-eyed girl who bats her eyelashes and runs around in towels, you now what I mean? Because that kind of makes me want to vomit.
Julia Stiles
There are a handful of actors who sustain interest because it's exciting to watch them get better at what they do. I want to be one of those actors.
Julia Stiles
I'm going to Columbia University but I'm trying to keep that low-profile because I don't want weird people following me there. I want the experience of normal college life.
