A lot of people think, Ill give acting or poetry or filmmaking a try. And if it doesnt work out Ill go get a law degree, do something else thats more practical. For me I went the reverse way. I lived the back-up plan. – Brit Marling
I get uncomfortable when people give me presents and watch me open them. I dont have birthday parties, because the idea of a group of people singing and looking at me while Im blowing out candles gives me hives. – Brit Marling
I feel like Im a much better person when Im developing my imagination and my innocence and my vulnerability. I like that version of me better than the version where Im just working on my analytical mind. – Brit Marling
