Once I set my mind towards something, it's going to happen. By hook or by crook.

I'd go into the woods to look for the witches, the mythical beings.

I did buy an electric guitar while shooting 'Split.'

I don't really feel like I belong anywhere, which makes me belong everywhere.

I swear like a sailor.

I've been quite lucky in that the roles that I've been able to play are all kind of outsiders.

I got scouted for modeling, and it was really scary - I was walking my dog wearing heels for the first time ever because I had a party to go to the day after, and I wanted to practice, and this black car kind of started following me, so I, being dramatic, picked up the dog and started to run.

It is kind of bizarre, but at the same time, I feel like anyone that gets into movies didn't fit into the real world, and so we made our own world.

I've been quite lucky in that the roles that I've been able to play are all kind of outsiders. And, you know, I belong to so many places and belong to none of them at the same time, so there's this sense of displacement - I very much understand what it is to not fit in or belong somewhere.

'The Witch' is feminist.

I just want to see what life's going to throw my way. So far, it's been very unexpected. I'm kinda on a roller coaster and want to enjoy that.

I never fit in as a kid. I always felt that there was something different about me.

I don't actually watch that much TV, but I was obsessed with 'Dawson's Creek' growing up. And 'Freaks and Geeks.' And '8 Simple Rules for Dating My Teenage Daughter.'

I find it very difficult to compare any two projects because they're all such different beasts.

I have an active imagination.

I love the theater, I'd love to work in theater at some point, but I grew up with movies being something that I just clung to.

I refused to learn English for two years when we moved to London, hoping to send my family back home. It was tough, but at the same time, it has given me a sense of displacement that actually really suits the life that I'm living now.

I got scouted when I was 16, almost 17, and it was something that had never entered my thoughts. I never thought I could be a model. I was such a tomboy growing up, and I've never really been into makeup or anything like that, so it was really surprising, but I definitely saw it as an in for acting.

My goal is to make a movie that no one would sort of expect me to make.

It doesn't matter where it is in the world or who I'm making the movie with; that's the closest thing that I've got to a sense of placement.
