If you want your girls to feel strong and intelligent and be outspoken and fight for what they think is right, then I want to be that type of role model.

I'm self-loathing, introverted, and neurotic.

There are many sides to me to who I am and my personality. I think the only thing that is rebellious about me is that I don't really have a lot of fears, as far as film industry is concerned.

I've always at least tried to be self-deprecating when I say anything about myself. As long as you set the bar low, it will keep people from putting you on a pedestal, so they can't knock you off.

There's a million people I could name who are more deserving of the parts that I get and the life that I'm living.

I think that I'm so psychotic and so mentally ill that if I could tap into that I could do something really interesting.

I'll do things that maybe other people would be afraid to do or afraid to say. But in my personal life, I'm actually very responsible with my personal relationships.

Until you have kids, you can't imagine how much you could possibly love a human being.

I feel people think I'm almost like a robot - like an android I just don't really get portrayed as someone who has feelings or who is sympathetic like a self-absorbed ice queen.

I've never been a big believer in formal education.

Sarcasm doesn't translate in print at all.

I like reading books that provide you with knowledge that you previously didn't have. And books you have a chance to grow as a human being after reading them.

Every time I leave the house or we go anywhere, there is a paranoia. We always have to watch for specific cars and specific signs that we're being photographed.

We live in this world where loosing our phones are more dramatic than loosing our virginity.

I definitely have some kind of mental problem and I haven't pinpointed what it is.

So much of what I say gets sensationalized and journalists have to report on scandal because that's what people are hungry to read about.

Even when I'm trying to be straightforward and honest and my comments are innocent, inevitably they get turned into something sort of salacious.

I know what you need as a female to feel not just comfortable but powerful.

Women hold the power because we have the vaginas. If you're in a heterosexual relationship and you're a female, you win.

I believe that every interaction is an act of fate in some way, that we're meant to interact with them, and it's our job to flesh that out and experience it to the fullest and learn the lessons we're meant to.

I like someone who has a super gentle spirit and energy. I’m really gentle, and so I like a boy who will treat me that way.

I've learned that being a celebrity is like being a sacrificial lamb. At some point, no matter how high the pedestal that they put you on, they're going to tear you down.

I'll starve to death before I'll cook for myself. I think I could survive a week without eating.

We live in a world where losing your phone is more dramatic than losing your virginity

Self-loathing doesn't keep me from being happy. But that doesn't mean I don't struggle.

I haven't gone completely insane, but it might happen soon.

I'm very confident in how I project my personality.

My definition of beauty is simplicity, elegance, and sensuality. I think that when a woman is in harmony with herself and remains true to her values, she will glow naturally.

No one ever gets tired of loving. But everyone gets tired of waiting, assuming, hearing lies, and hurting.

Hold your head high, and your middle finger higher.

Just be you. I've learned the hard way and in the end, some people are just so full of hate that no matter what you say or do, they'll always have something to say.

I hate going out and being in crowds or being in clubs. I can't deal with it, and I don't like it; I've never liked it.

I always want to be a part of ensembles. Besides it feeling safer, I think it's a more fun environment to work in. To have a bunch of people collaborating on something, it takes the pressure off of each individual.

When you're in something as successful as 'Transformers,' you can't use it as a sales piece for your ability as an actress because it's all about the special effects.

If I really buckle down, I think one day I could be a very good actress.

I was raised Catholic. I went to Catholic school for 12 years.

Angelina Jolie was always a Method actress. She'd been nominated for Golden Globes before she ever did 'Tomb Raider.'

You never know when someone is videotaping you or trying to capture your image. I see how it makes some people crazy.

Armani is a fashion house that I think is iconic and beautiful.

I feel people think I'm almost like a robot - like an android... I just don't really get portrayed as someone who has feelings or who is sympathetic... like a self-absorbed ice queen.

I always bring cash for tips, and I never give less than $20. I used to work in a smoothie shop, so I know the value of a tip.

I was too young to have watched '90210.'

Every time someone uses a bathroom and they flush, all the bacteria is shot into the air.

I can cook, but I also want everything to look beautiful on the plate - then I get upset when people eat it. Everyone just tears through it, and that makes me sad. It's not a rewarding experience for me to cook.

Try and stay away from dairy - especially if you're a woman! It's really hard on your hormones.

If I get stuck doing comic-book films for the rest of my life, I'll be really happy.

I booked 'Transformers' having no clue what I was doing. And then, all of a sudden, it was like: 'You've got to get your game together fast.' It sucks, but I'm trying.

I want people to know me through the movies I do. I want to be judged on that. If you start becoming famous for your personal life, that's when your career goes away.

My main weakness is nerves.

There's a million people I could name who are more deserving of the parts that I get and the life that I'm living.
