Young people are fascinated with the idea of love, maybe because they haven't experienced it. The older you get, the more jaded you become with this, like, mystical love thing. It's not as exciting because it's not unknown.

My older brother's really good at making fun of me for just being a workaholic and never taking time for myself. Even when we go on vacation, I'm always working.

I'm into outdoor sports like hiking, windsurfing, water-skiing.

My brother and I had a lot of freedom growing up, and thankfully, we both turned out OK.

My mom and I would make bracelets and necklaces, and I would sell it in the first, second, and third grades because that was my lunch money.

I do a lot of reading about food and the food industry, so I try to eat locally and go to the farmer's market.

I write because it feels good, and I don't have a deadline, and I don't have people telling me what they want me to write. Maybe if I did, I wouldn't be very good at it.

My dad's Jewish and my mum is Christian, so I grew up with no religion. Just whatever religion I wanted.

My little brother is autistic, so I would love to be involved in a charity for autism, but I haven't found the right one yet.

I feel like every day of my life is a funny wardrobe malfunction!

People think that saving the planet or finding their place in that effort is a really overwhelming thought.

I have speakers all over my house because music is such a huge, huge part of who I am.

If I told you how many times guys on set get spray muscles... men need to realize that they don't need to live up to what they think they need to live up to!

For some reason, young girls, they don't want the guy that's just there.

I think so many young girls get caught up in the challenge of being with somebody who's dangerous, who's bad, who's enticing, who's all of those things, and you forget what it's like to enjoy simple love.

My boyfriend, who I love to death - he's only 17 so he's the youngest guy I've ever dated - he just moved here from Hawaii to be with me and I met him when I was 10. Anyway, in Hawaii they have such a different mentality and different priorities.

I play characters that are pretty; I play characters that are sort of intimidating and confident, but that doesn't necessarily mean that I'm that.

I didn't have the safety net that a lot of young actresses have. A lot of young girls have their families around to support them and help choose wisely.

My mom can't defend herself to the world. She is such an amazing woman, with such an open heart. It's a real hard line, and I crossed it. I took everyone's life story and assumed it would be a great thing to put on screen. I was being selfish and I feel so horrible about it. I feel so guilty.

My mom and I built a guest house on my property so that my mom could help me fostering animals. I do multiple fosters a month.

I have a long-standing relationship with Autism Speaks. I've been supporting them for many, many years now.

In Hollywood, no one is happy with who they are. When they're young, they want to look older. When they're older, they're getting botox shot in their face to look younger.

Part of being young is making mistakes.

I definitely think that females have a harder time. It's a lot harder to be a girl because you're always in your head. I've heard my brother go and take it out on the football as he says. Whereas girls would rather sit down and over think things.

We live in a world where sort of nothing is shocking anymore.

I've always loved music and felt connected to it, but was too afraid to explore that avenue.

I have nobody. I have surrounded myself with people who are fake just because I need to talk to somebody.

With girls, friendships are hard because you have to learn to get to a maturity level to love them but not want to be them.

When you're playing a character in a book, there's already a lot of pressure because all of the millions of people who have read the series have been able to envision and become very attached to the characters.

The frenzy of the little-girl culture is something very unique, and I can only say that because I was one. The obsession - I can't really explain it. Everything is heightened to the maximum.

At the end of the day, that's our sole purpose and our sole reason for existing, is to love somebody else.

I have friends come over and we read plays out loud and I make paintings and I just do things all the time just so I don't ever feel like I'm sitting around.

I love jewellery, and the idea of having something you've created become tangible is really exciting.

I've discovered on this journey in the entertainment industry that, especially as a girl, woman... it's really important to try to create your own opportunities.

My rule is: If I can eat it, I can put it on my skin.

While most people turn 21 and decide to go out and party, I turned 21 and decided that I was going to become somebody that I never thought I could be: somebody who cares about herself and her body, her future, and her health.

I always wanted to be a makeup artist. When I don't get to have my stylist, I do my own makeup!

My dad is a man that, for as long as I can remember, has kept a book of favorite things his kids say.

Parents are in denial a lot of the time - everybody knows what they did as a teenager, but somehow, when they grow up, it all disappears.

I mostly eat plant-based, so give me an avocado or something, even late at night, and I'll be happy.

I love making things for people.

Animals, until you have kids of your own, animals are your kids.

I have great respect for actors like Jodie Foster and Natalie Portman who went to school the entire time they were acting. All I did was one small little independent film, and I realised I couldn't balance both lives.

I've never really made a big deal out of my birthday.

I love writing. I feel more connected to that than I do a lot of the other things.

I love to write what I see and what I do and what I experience, and I like to see if people can relate to that. I don't know if I am as good at making up a story in my head that has no truth to it, so that is a challenge for me.

When I get hate mail, I get really down on myself, and I read it to my mom, and my mom is like, 'So what? Who cares? These people don't know you, so you can't take the praise or the hate to heart.'

My name is not big enough for people to go, 'Let me throw money at you because you're so famous!'

I was a very sensitive kid who then had to condition myself to desensitize.

I didn't have any media training - I didn't have anybody but myself.
