Tina Majorino quotes:

I was not pushed into the business by anything other than my own ambition and my own dream of wanting to act.

Ordinarily during the stage of your life when you're going through your adolescence and you're completely awkward and uncomfortable, the rest of the world isn't watching you with bated breath. It's different when you're an actor and you choose to work your way through that period because it only makes it worse.

People know they have seen me somewhere, but they don't know where. They think I'm their next-door neighbor.

OK, I love 'The King and I.' I'm a huge Yul Brynner fan. I love the scene where they danced after the big banquet; that's one of my favorite scenes in a movie of all time. It's romantic and sweet and wonderful.
