I feel that I fell somewhat under that category where I was using fighting to kind of run from my own self to an extent, to kind of numb the things that I thought about myself. When I had fighting taken away, I was forced to look at myself in the mirror and say, ‘What are you without fighting?’

One of the magical things about these anthropomorphic animal movies is that we can take things that are so common in our own world that we deal with, like the DMV, or moving to a new city, or our family, and show you a mirror image of those things, reflected in a whole new way. That’s why animals are great.

I’m not really into EDM music; I really like when someone plays their instrument and stuff. But I saw Deadmau5 at a festival, and it was pretty tight, I have to admit. He’s got the giant mouse head on and tubes coming out of the ceiling and giant mirror glass things.
You lose or you win the fight – and anything in life – in your mind. I can look at how the person walks, how he speaks, his expressions. It’s a wisdom. Eyes are the mirror of the soul. So you can read a lot.

I don’t always feel sexy even though I have to look it, and I’ve just learned to go into on-and-off mode. I’m a mom at home, and then I go into work, and it’s nice to have that contrast. I see a different person in the mirror when I’m at work with hair and makeup than when I’m home.

I hate to look at myself in a mirror, and I never go and see films.
