Personal Quotes
I pray every night. I just talk to God and I can go to sleep. I don't worry anymore.
I love... anything in black and white
"It creeped me out at first, but I guess it's nice to know I still resonate in people's minds." - about being recognized on her subway commute to work
"They spoil you rotten. If you want a glass of milk, they run off to get you one." - about being on a movie set as a child actor
I really don't like to do back-to-back movies. I concentrate on things at home. My family and school life are important to me. I try to do one movie a year.
