I remember my agent at the time called me and was like, I've got it! I've found it! I've found your role! I worked my ass off to get that role, because I think me and three or four other girls tested for it. But it was a great time.

Boxing Helena was something that I think was pretty cool, but people judged it without even having seen it. It's not perfect, but I think for the story that we were trying to tell, it turned out pretty good. What it signified was really powerful to me: how society puts us in boxes one way or another.

I love to dance. But I don't like being up in front of tons of people. I didn't have that in me to do it, the desire to be performing in front of a lot of people. If there's a lot of people on a set, I get nervous. So music just wasn't something I ever seriously considered.

Talking to fans has really blown my mind. It's made me so happy to know my work has touched people.

I don't know why people see the things that they do. I wouldn't pay to see them, they don't touch me or move me in any way.

In a perfect world, I could be doing some bigger films and balance that with some independent films because they seem to be the most challenging and unique

They've offered me every variation on Audrey Horne, none of which were as good or as much fun.

I'm in a space of surrendering and being open and seeing. It's a good place to be - the only place to be.

Jessica Lange in Frances... was dramatic and passionate and one of the strongest performances I've seen a woman do

I really loved Twin Peaks. When I saw the two-hour pilot, they screened it in the big theatre. I said, I don't know what is going to happen. I'm in this and I don't understand it. This is never going to sell. Who's going to watch this thing?

Even if your work touches one person, that's an amazing gift.

There is something at work that's bigger than us. It's about having a trust in life and being at peace that things are happening the way they should. You do what you do as well as you can do it, and then you don't worry or agonize about the outcome
