"It is an honor for me to take part in Canon's Project Imagin8ion, partnering with a brand that is empowering young filmmakers and is at the forefront of technology."

"As a teenager, I was perpetually grounded. I was stubborn rather than rebellious."

"Actors create a fantastic lifestyle thinking they're going to be able to maintain it. Then they can't get work or have to start taking work that doesn't suit them."

"Getting on a popular, long-running show like 'Happy Days' is the actor's equivalent of winning the lottery."

"I'm always looking at my brother and sisters, thinking - do we look inbred, maybe? Maybe a tiny bit."

"Yeah, I'm a little weird. I'm definitely a little eccentric."

"As far as what is the line between human and machine? That's a great question."

"Actors are always nervous about not only hurting each other, but maybe perhaps hitting each other's face and ending one's career."

"I've admired Anthony Hopkins for so long, and when I finally got to meet him in person, I became totally immobile and speechless! I stood there looking at him and couldn't say a word."

"There's something really freeing about playing a character that isn't even, like, remotely likeable whatsoever."

"I did a play in New York at the public theater, a Shakespeare play, and M. Night Shyamalan, who is the writer/director of 'The Village,' came and saw me in the play and asked to go to lunch afterwards."

"I'm a night owl."

"When I started working, I just had my name be 'Bryce Dallas.'"

"I've always been, with acting, very hesitant to get myself into situations where I would be accused of nepotism."

"I shouldn't have acted. I didn't exhibit any ability. I was one of the kids in the school play who was just mouthing words, and they weren't the actual words of the song. I was pretty lame!"

"I don't have any friends who are actors through my dad."

"I want to be a good example for my son. That's the best way to parent - to be the example of what you want to see in them. That's definitely how my parents parented and how my grandparents parented. And it works."

"Ours was a loving, nurturing household, but, at the same time, my parents' goal was to make all their children self-sufficient."

"My parents would never throw the kids in first class for the flights; they'd be up front, and we'd be economy - we knew we were lucky just to be travelling."

"My dad is the most humble man on the planet."

"What I do is not go outside. My hobby is that I write, so if I'm not acting or being a mom, I'm writing."

"I'm not going to lie. I rarely wear sunblock."

"I'm not an NRA member, but that doesn't mean I didn't appreciate shooting blanks out of a machine gun."

"I'm really into sci-fi. I always have been. In addition to that, I've always had a tremendous fascination with the lure of the Apocalypse or Judgment Day or the Mayan calendar, etc., etc."

"When I work on a film, I always tend to relate to the crew."

"My dad's more three-dimensional than Opie Taylor or Richie Cunningham. He even has a temper! He's a real person. But some people are disappointed by that."

"Right now as an artist, what I want to do is be a part of works that are unignorable. I couldn't be less interested in how people receive it, honestly. As long as it's unignorable."

"I was raised in Connecticut. And I honestly wasn't aware that my dad was a celebrity until I moved to Los Angeles a year ago."

"It was such a paradox for me that the only thing I know how to do is act, but that the first thing I abandoned while writing were the characters."

"I never really dyed my hair anything significant from my natural hair color."

"My body's my best friend."

"I found out I was pregnant seven days after my wedding. I was on honeymoon with my family."

"'50/50' is a comedy. I shouldn't say it's a buddy comedy because it's not farcical, and it's based on a true story, but it's viewing that experience through a very truthful lens of humour."

"Do I wish I had never endured postpartum depression? Absolutely. But to deny the experience is to deny who I am."

"You meet your soulmate, and you're like, 'Well, this is it. This is the feeling of falling in love, and it's the most intense it can ever be.' Then you have a child, and it's like - it's huge!"

"Whenever I hear the word 'breakout,' I associate it with acne."

"I loved being pregnant."

"Using the word 'bossy' for girls can be quite harmful. What is that saying - that being focused, being assertive, being the boss has a negative attribute? And I have heard that term associated more with women than with men. 'He's so bossy' - you don't hear that. It's a very subtle thing."

"Sometimes people are like, 'Do you want to play strong women?' I don't have to play strong women in order to feel like a strong woman myself, but I do feel it's important to play characters that are complex and interesting and believable."

"I've always had the perspective that roles come into my life when I need them most and sort of teach me lessons. The same can be true of films, films are released into society to aid in a lesson, inspire people, comfort people."

"I've learned to think in terms of having a long career. Actors can have very long careers that last until the day we die, but there will be moments when you'll feel like you're a failure or when you're disappointed in yourself."

"My parents taught me many of the things that people need in life to feel confident: practical things, such as managing finances, mucking out the goat barn, cleaning a house, doing repairs, mending a broken roof or a toilet."

"I want to be the best actor that I can be; I want to be working in this business absolutely, and if that means being a movie star, then OK, that's fine. But to me, movie star, celebrity, all that stuff means something very different than being an actor."

"My sister can walk down the street and just know what's going on with people. She'll say, 'Oh, they're going through a divorce' or, 'Their kid just went off to college' or, 'He just got a great job.'"

"My mum told me, 'At that moment when you know you can't do both, the marriage and the kids, choose the marriage because you're going to be spending your whole lives together, so you have to put a lot of work and attention into the relationship.'"

"I've always been a little bit cautious about what projects I step into. I don't mean to be dramatic, but I feel that every single thing you do in life, you give a piece of your soul, and I want to be responsible with that."

"For me, breastfeeding was even more painful than giving birth. And despite a lactation consultant, I felt incompetent. I forged on, barely sleeping, always either breastfeeding or pumping and never getting the hang of it."

"When I was coming of age, I remembered reading and studying the initial ideas within the feminist movement. There was this idea with my parents' generation that in order to find equality, a woman would need to behave like a man."

"When I was seven, I was allowed to be an extra in 'Parenthood,' which was amazing. But then I kind of got addicted to it, and my parents didn't want me to want to act. They felt that would be putting your kid in an adult world."

"There's a lot of wisdom that my dad and my grandparents and my uncle have been able to impart on me, and what I've treasured the most is I've seen examples in my life of people embracing their creativity, not feeling insecure about their artistic inclinations."
