Quotes

✩ I hadn’t realized how difficult it was going to be to play Edward [Cullen] until I started reading the script. He’s a very complex character, so I moved to Portland by myself two or three months before filming began and didn’t do anything but read the script and books to find anything that helped me play him. Then I started to write things.

★ I go through fan mail myself, but I think I might get them censored, because I’m always expecting to get the one thing that says, ‘I know where you live and I’m going to kill you!’ I’m always expecting that to come, but it never seems to arrive. I never get any negative mail, so someone must be censoring them.
