My favorite book in life is ‘A Wrinkle In Time,’ which I read before high school. It was my first introduction into the meeting of science and spirit and the universe and big thoughts and all of those interesting New Age-y concepts. It made everything make sense to me and opened up my mind. Mae Whitman Read Quote
I kind of dress like a boy from the nineties. I like wearing baseball hats. I just like to be really comfortable. Mae Whitman Read Quote
I’m a single child. I wanted a little brother or a little sister growing up, but when I think about it, I’m happy I’m an only child. Mae Whitman Read Quote

I really love poetry. I’m a big E.E. Cummings fan and a big Walt Whitman fan, and I have a big book of poetry. Mae Whitman Read Quote
It’s funny, because I don’t have a very addictive personality in any way except for things like stories or books or movies or TV. I just get, like, completely enamored and lost in that world, especially when one really hits the right way. Like, I just can’t do anything else. Mae Whitman Read Quote
Being on a movie set when you have a great strong people there supporting you can be very nurturing. You get to explore these creative parts of yourself as a child that most people don’t explore until they’re in college. Mae Whitman Read Quote
The actual, original ‘Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles,’ I have vague memories of because I was pretty small, but I loved, loved, loved it. I have only those weird, visceral little-kid memories: I remember the extreme flat, two dimensional green that was their skin or the weird pizza with no sauce – it was just like yellow, drippy cheese.
