Everyone needs something from me.

I am not a particularly political person, but, as a Tribeca resident, the commodification of September 11th is offensive to me.

I can play very annoying girl, very lost girl and then all the things in the spectrum between.

I do think girls in their twenties accept certain kinds of lesser treatment than they would at other times in their lives.

I don't really read reviews... That's not where my attention goes.

I feel like I don't watch that many shows with death.

I felt highly anxious in a way that I didn't think other children were.

I felt like my parents were always involved with abstraction, and I wanted to do something very specific.

I find it really awkward to do a scene where I'm supposed to seem like I'm in love.

I guess I think about doing stuff that nobody else has done.

I had always written. I had written stories and poems. Then I started writing plays.

I had no friends. I worried a lot.

I have an agent now.

I have to write people who feel honest but also push our cultural ball forward.

I kind of look like every other girl, walking around.

I learned that people are much more game to mock their own personas than you would think.

I love directing scenes that I'm not in because suddenly I really feel like a filmmaker which is a different thing.

I love what I do, I love every minute of it.

I never start anything with a really overt, political, or even exactly artistic mission statement.

I never thought of myself as like, a funny person.
