I always liked performing. I always liked being in front of people. That's one of the things I loved about law; we had mock trials, and I got to go u….

When I met [Robert Pattinson], he literally didn't make any impression on me. He's quiet, and he's not very outgoing..

You need someone who is going to help you make that better version of yourself..

I am certainly not perfect. I don't think you should try to be perfect for anyone. When you come to terms with that, then you're OK..

I feel most beautiful at night, when I take my makeup off and it's just me..

I think it's better that life is kind of like a mystery, I think that's what drives us..

I feel like there is never enough, and it's interesting to me because I don't think I'm that interesting. I can definitely bring something to the tab….

I don't like watching myself. That's kind of weird but you know it's not me really, it's this character, which I think might make it a little easier..

I go through stages. Randomly, I'll be attracted to a crazy rocker with tattoos. And I find that I'm extremely attracted to ambition and wit..

Throughout the course [of Twilight], you get to see a little more of her vampiric side, because I think she's this vampire with a heart of gold and s….

My mom is a Twilight fan as well and she's just as excited because she's read all the books so I think she wants to see it come alive just like anybo….
