Zitat des Tages von Taylor Schilling:
I'd love to do theater. I've done so many plays in my life. I still think of that as my main thing.
I don't do detoxes or cleanses; they don't really work for me.
I definitely felt by the time I got to grad school - which was a great experience - I was like, 'What's the difference between the teachers and the students? Why are the teachers teachers if they want to be acting?' It didn't make sense to me anymore. It's not like you learn how to set a broken bone and you get the stamp of approval.
I don't like it when people don't hold the door. I don't know, that really bugs me... I guess I like manners.
I'm not very cool. I have a really hard time meeting people and stuff.
I know what feels good to eat and what doesn't. I try to err on the side of choices I know will leave me feeling more energized and ready to go, because it's always better to feel healthy.
I started doing yoga in college, so that has just become a staple of a self-care routine for my mind and my body. My body craves it at this point, so I do it two to three times a week, sometimes more. I practice Vinyasa style yoga and sometimes mix it up.
I'm a tall woman. At work, that means a lot of my co-stars have to stand next to me on apple crates. But apparently, my height bodes well in the fashion world.
I'm really into Greek yogurt, fruit and almonds. Those are my 'go-to' snacks.
Coffee makes me go crazy.
I am very interested in Ayurvedic medicine and hope to explore it more someday. I only have a very superficial understanding of the whole thing right now. But learning what my body type is has shifted my whole self-care regime a bit, and I feel better because of it.
On a film set, for me, there's so much more time to process what's going on than there is on a television set. There's more wiggle room to try things and fail and try again and get to the heart of what's going on in the scene, which is really fun for me. It's what I like to do.
I don't have a connection to the fashion world at all.
So often, we're expected to maintain some sort of standard - that won't get you where you need to go. One of the most daring things I've done is drop out of graduate school. I had no job, but something inside me was saying, 'Go! Be in the world!' I had to listen to myself, and it worked out. I still think, 'Who was that girl?'
In school, I was playing old men and women, babies, Russian people, and all sorts of weird parts - a lot of comedy - and that's sort of like home to me.
I like to do yoga, Pilates, dance, and things like that.
I wanted to wear a uniform when I was in high school, but I couldn't. I was like, 'It would be so much easier!'
For me as an actor, daring is to tell the truth - to be yourself, no matter how the world interacts with that.
Be yourself. You're okay. And it really doesn't matter what other people think.
