    • Marisa: I grew up in a big Midwestern family of people with real normal jobs. The concept of not only watching movies but thinking you can be in them was very foreign. So, yeah, I did not know a soul when I moved out here. I certainly didn't know anyone in the business.
    • (about living in Hollywood) Marisa: Well, every once in a while I'll hit a breaking point, and I'll just leave town. But that just lets me reflect on what I love about this city: the weather, the beach, the creative environment. Yeah, sometimes it's a bit much, but I don't mind it for the most part because I sort of thrive on adrenaline and the excitement and the unknowns and question marks of this business, I think it's fun. And I think you have to think it's fun or it'll kill you.
    • (about being difficult to find true love in Hollywood) Marisa: Yeah, I would say so. It's difficult at times to find normalcy, and I think it would be good to date someone who wasn't in the industry at all, though it's hard to meet people like that. If I go out, I go to dinner or parties with my friends. I don't really go to bars.
    • Marisa: I do believe in love at first sight. [...] I have a couple of people in my life they meet and they just clicked instantly. And it has happen to me once before. I do believe in it.
    • Marisa: Hollywood is full of men who need wraparound mirrors so that they never have a moment when they can't check themselves out.
    • (about how rough can it get doing a movie violent scenes with her) Marisa: I was supposed to hit Josh Jackson in Gossip and connected so hard that his ear was ringing for a day. Super Troopers was shut down because I smacked someone too hard in the head.
    • (on what she is looking for in a guy) Marisa: A fearlessly crazy sense of humor. I'm kind of goofy, and I need someone who has that, too. I'm looking for the inner freak in a guy.
    • Marisa: ...in an audition or doing a movie, I'm all go, but in real life, I'm not, 'Oh, baby, baby.' If I'm at a party where everyone's 'on', I'll be in the corner turning bright red.
    • (on how she got the part in the movie 'Freddy Got Fingered') Marisa: I was so aggressive in the audition that I was ripping [Tom's] clothes off. I went further than any of the other girls who tried out.
    • Marisa: Hollywood is full of men who need wraparound mirrors so that they never have a moment when they can't check themselves out. I love guys who don't worry about what they look like, who aren't aware of how attractive they are.
    • (on the type of parts she plays) Marisa: I thought I'd be playing the girl next door. But, no matter how I look, the freak inside me leaks out. They make undergarments for that.
