- "The great thing about film is you start and finish. It's a journey that lasts so long, TV lasts a long time."
- The part I enjoy about acting is just having that imagination, taking your mind to a place that you wouldn't normally necessarily go to.
- (on her film Sugar & Spice) Huge party, from the day we started until we wrapped in Minneapolis. We'd all go to coffee in the morning and we became best friends. We were so excited to be in an all-girl film. was one big shopping spree. They put us in this hotel across from a shopping mall, and we were often late for work!
- No matter what the character is, I just say to myself "If I, Melissa George, was in that situation, how would I react?" and once you do that you can just go for it, and hopefully the performance comes through.
