"I was at (Steven Spielberg's) house, playing with his kids, and when my mom came to pick me up, Steven answered the door and said, 'Oh my God, that child!' "My mom automatically thought - since I am the clumsiest person on the planet - that I broke something. She said, 'Whatever it was, I'll pay for it.' And he was like, 'You've got to put her in front of a camera!'"
"I love working with all of them. They're so great. They're such great people. They're great actors. They're so sweet and they welcomed me with open arms."
"Honestly, on my first day, I didn't know if I should have been nervous or anything like that. I was just completely still in shock that I got it. I'm one of those people, I don't believe it 'til I see it, so when I actually arrived on set, it was like, 'Huh. So I did get it. Well, this is a new world.' Then everybody welcomed me with open arms and everybody was so sweet and they just became such a happy family for me."
"It's so much fun to play the bad girl. Everybody has that little side of them they never really get to get out."
"I'm getting to play the thing I never get to do in real life -- I get to be the bitch."
"I've watched 'The O.C.' since the beginning, I love that show. I still watch it and I love the fact that I know what's going to happen in the future!"

"Whenever Mischa [Barton] walks into a room, she just looks phenomenal. You can't help but get a little inspiration from her."
"During the first season, I did have a crush on Adam Brody. But I used to always say I was on the fence, because who doesn't like a little bad boy like Ryan Atwood?"

"[Working as a model] I went to New York, Hawaii – one year I missed about 50 days of school,"
"[My step-father, Brian de Palma] always given me advice about how to stay true and how to not get corrupted by all this stuff that happens in Hollywood."
"When I was little, one and two, I used to sit in front of the TV and my mom told me I would point to the TV and be like, "That's what I want to do." She always knew it was something I wanted to do, and once you have people like Steven Spielberg and Brian de Palma behind you, why not give it a shot?"
"I'd love to work with Julia Roberts and Johnny Depp, or Dick Van Dyke - I love Mary Poppins – when I was little I was obsessed with it."
