“I was so overwhelmed,” Silverstone said during an interview last year. “I was just a theatre kid. I never wanted to be in movies or TV. There’s no support or schooling on what do you do when you suddenly found yourself famous as a young woman. It was just too much for me.”
“So I decided I would use this to spotlight something that is very meaningful to me.”

“I went on a quest to change the world, to make things better — for children, for the earth, for animals. I wasn’t paying attention to my career, I was paying attention to something else. And then one day I went: ‘Wait, I want to act, too, what’s going on?'”

“There’s a lot more to it that obviously is personal and private. But that’s where I’m at. I can happily have a husband and a child and a life, and I get to contribute in a really meaningful way to the world and I also get to be an actress. And that’s a wonderful thing to be.” (RELATED: Photos Of Amanda Knox Just Surfaced — See What The Accused Murderer Looks Like Now)
