- [on being the first Native American actress to be nominated for an Oscar] Why am I the first? Why did it have to take this long for me to be the first Indigenous North American? Most of the films that show up in these categories are shot on Indigenous land in North America, and it's taken this long.
- One of the big things that tipped me to my queerness is I don't have the draw to motherhood the way a lot of women have. There was a period of my life when I thought I might be asexual because I had no sexual attraction to anybody. I had a romantic attraction to everybody but no sexual desire. Then the word 'demisexual' came into play, where it's, like, I don't feel sexual stirring at all unless I actually care about this person, no matter who they are.
- Danny DeVito said that no matter which character he plays, they are all going to be short. Whatever character I play is going to be indigenous.
