Mischa barton Quotes
"I'm a bit of a workaholic, I've realized."

"I do intelligent roles. I don't want to be labeled as doing silly movies. I'm more mature than kids my age because I'm constantly surrounded by adults."

"I don't know Russell Crowe, he just doesn't do anything for me. People say he's good looking but I don't see it." Marissa to Ryan on The O.C.

"I don't take myself too seriously on the set. I try to show that I have a spark."

"I've had fellow actors tell me... You have to throw more tantrums!"

"Sometimes men are scared of me. You know, you become kind of an icon on television, and people are a little bit unsure, careful. It's funny."

"Pretty people aren't as accepted as other people. It's like, 'She's pretty and thin and she's got to have problems. She's messed up.'"

"I like to play dark, offbeat, quirky characters."

"I was a prostitute!"

"I have a great job, wonderful friends and a wonderful boyfriend and I love my life!"

"Paris isn't my rival. I met her one or two times and she's making out there's this big rivalry between us and there so isn't."

"My dog is always my boyfriend. Charlie is the best - I got him when I broke up with Brandon Davis. He will always be my number one man and he knows that. The dogs are a huge part of my downtime. Actually, it's shocking how much you can become absorbed by them."

(on what she’s looking for in a guy) "I’m looking for a guy who is confident with a great sense of humour - that’s so important to me, as long as I can laugh I’m always happy. I like to be light-hearted in my down time, so for me it’s all about some depth, intelligence and confidence. That’s what matters the most.

(on dating in the public eye) "I’m single right now and enjoying it. It’s not easy at all to have a relationship in the public eye, because everything you do is scrutinised. But I allow myself to have real friends and real friendships. I just find people who are right for me. Sometimes I say I want someone “normal” who’s not in the industry, but I don’t know if I mean that. People who aren’t in the industry can’t understand what my life is like. It’s a huge learning curve to understand it, with the press and the public, and it takes a lot of intelligence and humour to survive that."

(denying she is a party girl) "I know I look the part, and people used to come up to me in the street and talk to me as if I was a crazy party girl. But I don't go out clubbing because that whole thing is too claustrophobic. As for shopping, I'd rather walk my dogs, Ziggy Stardust and Charlie Barton. I cook a mean lasagne, and some people say my potatoes au gratin are pretty on fire. I guess some people are disappointed. I'm always being associated with other girls, but we're not in the same crowd. I have only met Paris Hilton once and that was in passing."

"It kind of irritates me that I'm seen as this pretty face. People also say I'm too thin. The truth is, pretty people aren't as accepted as other people. It comes with all these stigmas. "

(on attending classes at RADA in the UK) "People seem confused about the idea of me going to school but I love learning. My course was about Shakespeare and we hardly did any of that at school. It was really exciting to read all the plays."

(on holidaying in the UK) "I love all the mashed potatoes, the mushy peas and brussel sprouts. And oh my god, Cadbury‘s chocolate! It is so much better than Hershey‘s which we have in America."
