Quotes
I know people think that acting is not quite the occupation of grown-ups, but it is actually the ultimate learning process: You get a multitude of experiences, all for the price of one life.
The most amazing set where I've shot 'Game of Thrones' is definitely Croatia, in Dubrovnik. It's such a stunning country with lots of good watersports there as well. Just a beautiful, beautiful place.
For me, it's not necessarily interesting to play a strong, fearless woman. It's interesting to play a woman who is terrified and then overcomes that fear. It's about the journey. Courage is not the absence of fear, it's overcoming it.
I was a very physical child... I was a tree-climber; I was a tomboy.
I'm always open to trying out new things.
I'm a massive yoga head. Lots of yoga and lots of running. I do Bikram yoga. I adore it.
I'm a feminist in the true sense of the word. It's about equality.
We don't have enough young, female antiheroes. We don't accept women as antiheroes the way we do the men.
I love being part of huge mega blockbusters, and I love being a part of small independent films and small stage.
The beauty of 'The Hunger Games' and also 'Game of Thrones,' in fairness, both projects have really complex, three-dimensional, contradictory, strong women... The writing of female characters is extraordinary and equal to the men.
