The independent films are really where I kind of come from and where I feel comfortable. It's never been about the blockbusters and making a huge tonne of money. It's always been about wanting to do projects about the things that I think are important to be out there.
Mia Wasikowska
Ballet has really helped me in every acting role. You have to be very disciplined, you have to be able to control your nerves and perform under pressure, and all those things you have to use in acting when you're on film or going for an audition.
Mia Wasikowska
I like my anonymity - that when I meet people they don't know me.
Mia Wasikowska

Mia Wasikowska
You never choose the way that you're raised, it's just the way that you were raised, but you do get to a certain age where you're in a position to question the expectations of you and the way that you've been formed by your surroundings.
Mia Wasikowska
Any time you get a role that's a young person, that resembles what it's like to be a teenager, I always kind of jump at it.
