Not since North Korean media declared Kim Jong-il to be the reincarnation of Kim Il Sung has there been such a blatant attempt to create a necrocracy, or perhaps mausolocracy, in which a living claimant assumes the fleshly mantle of the departed. ↗

This friend of mine said he was surprised to find that - I don't think it's quite a majority - a bigger percentage of actors are introverts than extroverts. It was a big surprise to him. Now, I know me, and I'll do anything if I'm playing a character. Or anything that's true to the character, anyway. But in real life I'm a little more withdrawn. ↗

I take things like honor and loyalty seriously. It's more important to me than any materialistic thing or any fame I could have. ↗

I see myself as a flashlight in the dark. I'm not trying to be overlooked anymore. ↗

I much prefer working with kids whose life could be completely upended by a reading of a book over a weekend. You give them a book to read - they go home and come back a changed person. And that is so much more interesting and exciting. ↗

There's a tendency to think that young designers only do fantasy fashion, but I'm more interested in making clothes that women can afford. ↗

I talked about adopting a baby when I was 20 years old, before it became 'hip.' ↗

I feel more comfortable when I'm lighter - I sleep better, I snore less, I have more endurance when I work out, my arms look better. ↗

I love being able to go to a store, let's say... a store like Topshop or Zara or maybe even Macy's, depends on what department, and not have to look at the price tag. ↗

I loved planning 'The Tyra Show' more than actually having to do it. I loved coming up with show ideas, honing each program and crafting it. I'm more excited being in a meeting than being on TV. ↗
