I worry that I can come off smarmy. I wonder if I was listening to myself if I'd want to kick my own ass.
I have always been a person who is extremely comfortable in my skin. I have always just been myself in all these years on the public platform.
Very often, I recognize many, many defects, so I try to improve myself every day. I think my voice is very communicative.
I always get offered the pretty, popular girl roles, but I want to do something dark, really challenge myself and get out of my comfort level.
I don't want to continue to do what I did when I was 20. I would like to continue to develop myself and not continue to hang around with bands.
I feel a responsibility to myself, and not so much for the world at large. Because of my Calvinistic upbringing, I was trained to think that what you do has to have a purpose.
I’d stare up at the sky, reminding myself that Caleb and I were both underneath it. That wherever he was, whatever he was doing, we would always share something.
I'm really happy to be me, and I'd like to think people like me more because I'm happy with myself and not because I refuse to conform to anything.
I woke in bits, like all children, piecemeal over the years. I discovered myself and the world, and forgot them, and discovered them again.
Aside from 'Hatchet II' and 'Hatchet III,' I've never repeated myself. I try to keep doing things that are totally different.
I see myself as part English and part American, with a dash of Irish thrown in, and a pinch of Italian from my mother's ancestry.
Testifying has helped me understand that one individual's behavior and actions make a difference. That my actions are important to people other than myself.
Somedays I ask myself why do I spend hours in the gym, then I look in the mirror and think "Damn I look good!
I have always wanted to do something high octane. I've wanted to tackle an action role where I play a tomboy but empower myself as a woman.
If I make a fool of myself, who cares? I'm not frightened by anyone's perception of me.
I would just like to be known as my own person. I don't need to ride on any coattails. I just want to make my mark myself.
Attend me, hold me in your muscular flowering arms, protect me from throwing any part of myself away.
Do I really need to prove anything to anybody? I don't feel that I have to prove anything. The only thing that I have to prove is to myself, that I have value.
I had never thought of myself as a director and found out that I was not. I am a writer who was able to direct the films that I write.
If an artist is not only he who sings or paints, but he whow express himself by words or illustrations then I can consider myself as one.
And I withdrew into myself when I understood that they wanted to extract every thought in my head, one by one, like decayed teeth.
