Quote

Dance has helped me with everything. It was a great foundation for discipline, hard work and, unfortunately, the ever-elusive idea of perfection. It lends itself easily to fight choreography, because that's what it really is. Choreography. And knowing how to move with someone.

People expect all women to react the same to pregnancy. But anyone who's been around pregnant women knows that it's not all cutesy and sweet. You spaz out and you're angry and you have tantrums.

Really, it [the Waitress] was a story about believing in yourself ultimately, and caring enough about yourself to change your life.

When you are 16 you are supposed to be doing cool things, like sneaking alcohol, not living in Disney World and doing skits about mice.

With a pie, the crust is a real delicacy. It's very hard to get it just right because it's got to be cold and just the right consistency. There's a whole art to it and I haven't learned how to do it [filming in Waitress].There's not a lot of time for cooking, especially when you're shooting nights or working until 11pm.

I'm naturally thin, so I don't have to work too hard at it. I love food, but I also love to work out. I think it makes everything work better.

I think I'm probably more passionate about acting now than when I was a kid. When I was young, I didn't know what I was doing.

Maybe I’m old, but to me, ‘going out’ means going out to dinner. It’s about the conversation: someone recognizing your intellect, the charm of flirting, and really speaking to somebody.

I tend to come home and eat a bowl of cereal. I'm not thinking about baking a pie when I'm off work.

While 'Felicity' was successful in the States, and I had opportunities to do other stuff, I didn't want to do anything to make myself more famous. I wasn't dealing well with the celebrity of all of that. I was 23 - just a kid - and not coming from money, it was all just too much. I just wanted to slow it down a little bit, and gain control.

Everyone should dance more. Everyone should walk more.

I don't think, as a 15-year-old, you're that conscious about a lifetime career. I didn't think: I'm a serious actor. I never studied acting or anything when I was that age.

Eating a cookie never feels strange. I am a big believer in food in general.

I would splurge on a great pair of high heels, because you can wear them to something fancy, but regular clothes? I'd rather go on a trip than spend $10,000 on clothes, and fly first class as a treat.

We shot the movie [Waitress] in 20 days so there wasn't a lot of time to learn. There wasn't a lot of pie baking going on, at least not by me. But we always had pies while we were filming - we ate two different pies every day for lunch!

I feel better in my mind when I work out. It makes everything better.

I was a huge fan of 'Arrested Development,' and there's just something it tickles in me and it's bright and it's hilarious.

You instantly become less selfish. You can't be the biggest person in the world anymore-they are. [Motherhood] really grounds you.

That's interesting to hear you say that because watching it [the Waitress] for the first time at Sundance was fascinating - it was so different from the experience of making it.

I'm kind of a scaredy cat - I don't watch a ton of them. I mean, I started reaching this script at night and had to wait until the next morning to finish it so it would be light out. It really scared me. The scary movies I like are The Others and Pan's Labyrinth - they're so scary but they're about real things, and hopefully this is too.

I am literally the worst person at keeping secrets. I'd be the worst spy of all time.
