| # | Quote |
|---|---|
| 1 | [on Homeland (2011)] I was shocked and a little appalled because I realized Obama has seen my boobs. |
| 2 | I can't complain. I'm making a living out of what I do, which is really rare for a lot of actors. The hard part is staying confident and staying with it. |
| 3 | I love it when you have a lull in the day and you turn on the TV and a random movie is on that you either have never seen or haven't seen in years. Like Coming to America (1988) or Misery (1990) or Moonstruck (1987). |
| 4 | I'm not always up to date on everything that's going on, but I am somewhat informed. I listen to NPR. And I actually watch Fox News, because I believe, if you just listen to the things that agree with you, you're not really seeing anything else. |
| 5 | I've love to do more movies. Just because I'm interested in the medium very much. I've done a lot of theatre at this point, and I've done a lot of TV. I've done a few independent films, but a lot of them have not seen the light of day. It'd be really nice to be in a film that gets out there. |
| 6 | My mom is an actress, but she never really pushed me into it, and it was never something I thought I would be doing. She was very happy I decided to, but she certainly doesn't offer me criticism because she knows I'd tell her to shut up! Nobody wants to hear that from their mum! |
| 7 | My whole family is very artistic - my uncles are all actors and theatre directors. |
| 8 | The sky above us is something we have very little control of, and the space beyond is something we don't completely understand. |
| 9 | There are many people who live with terrorism every day. |
| 10 | Women work as much as men now, if not more. There's a resurgence of dads in the home and moms working. |
| 11 | Brazil has a lot of issues that are similar to a lot of countries in Latin America, but the dominant issue Brazil is dealing with is poverty and political corruption. |
| 12 | I get nervous for any competition. I also get really competitive. |
| 13 | I love Modern Family (2009); I don't exactly watch it when it's on, but I try to catch up on it when I can; it's one of my favorite shows. |
| 14 | I'm an avid cook. Brazilian, some Italian, a little French. And I often throw dinner parties. |
| 15 | If you watch the news, you see politicians use human vulnerabilities to get in and earn people's trust. |
| 16 | My mom was incredibly supportive when she found out that I wanted to be an actress, and that certainly made things easier and more fun. |
| 17 | My mother put me on birth control as soon as I told her I wanted to go on it. I was 16. I was very young. |
| 18 | When I'm not working, I'm definitely a no-makeup girl. The most I ever do is a little tinted moisturizer and a little mascara and blush. |
| 19 | Humans have a sense of spontaneity and emotion. We have a dichotomy between grief and happiness. |
| 20 | We're all interested in life outside of Earth. We all have a fascination with what's out there because we don't really know. |
| 21 | I feel that I have grown so much, as an actor, by being on Homeland (2011). |
| 22 | I've had long hair, I've had short hair, and I've had in between hair... and its all good. |
| 23 | They have a joy for life in Brazil unlike any country I've ever seen. |
| 24 | I do think it is possible to be in love with two people at the same time. |
| 25 | I love a good road trip. And I have been known to sing cheesy '80s songs at the top of my lungs on a windy road when no one can hear. |
| 26 | I would love to be a Bond girl. That is on my bucket list, definitely. |
