When I’m on an adult set and I’m in a scene, I am myself. I’m not acting. I am playing to the camera, definitely, but I am myself. – Sasha Grey
Reading was very important to me as a kid. It was very inspirational to me. I went to a school where that wasn’t encouraged so much, but my parents encouraged that, and it has made me part of who I am. – Sasha Grey
My goal is to be myself, and to challenge stereotypes, and to follow the rules, and break them, and make new rules. It’s not about doing something that’s already been done. That would be silly. – Sasha Grey
I like to work. I don’t like to have lulls. I feel like it makes me lazy and uncreative, and that’s when your ideas become stagnant. – Sasha Grey
Music is a passion of mine, so I also want to continue along that path, creating with my friends. – Sasha Grey
I sacrificed a lot, in terms of friendship and family, from working so much at such a young age, but I wouldn’t be where I am if I hadn’t. – Sasha Grey

I’ve been writing since I was 10 or 11. I started with poetry because that was the easiest thing. It just kind of came naturally. I think at that time West Coast hip hop was huge; all these kids around me were like, ‘I want to be a rapper.’ But I’m a white girl, not going to be a rapper. – Sasha Grey
Literally, I just love food and I like going to dinner with big groups of people so you can try everything. – Sasha Grey
I’ve really been trying to go back to when I was 18 and rediscover the things that drove me, and my passions. How do I get back to being that strong? Because I feel like as I get older, I’m not as fearless as I was when I was 18. – Sasha Grey
When I run into disappointment – say, for example, not getting a role I’d hoped for – I just try not to take it personally. – Sasha Grey

I guess I’ve always been attracted to secret societies and the mystery surrounding them. – Sasha Grey
Promoting education is an effort that is close to my heart. Illiteracy contributes to poverty; encouraging children to pick up a book is fundamental. – Sasha Grey
There are so many aspects of human sexuality that we’re afraid to talk about, because people still don’t understand it. It’s not just black and white, you know? – Sasha Grey
I’d like to think of myself as somebody who has a voice for liberating female sexuality. – Sasha Grey
Anybody that believes that Adrian Grenier’s name is really Vince should probably watch less TV. – Sasha Grey
