I am only capable of what I allow myself to believe I can do.

I can be capable of anything if I allow myself to be. I really realized what an obstacle I was being in my own life.

The amount of time I spent on facing my negative conscious has been most of my struggle and changing my mind-set has been the biggest change in my life not my weight.

A lot of my friends are musicians or artists, and their talent always pushes me to think creatively.

Women come in all shapes and sizes, and we are what we want to be, not the label that is placed on us.

I would like to release an album that I truly believe in, thus it is hard to put a time limit on it. I want to really go deeper and discover myself again through music.

If we can just try every day to be the best versions of ourselves, we are offering to the world the best addition to society.

The weight loss has been a secondary change to the mental changes I have made. Weight loss does not fix problems; how you view yourself does.

Making excuses and not trying because I was scared were my go-to reactions. Nothing was going to change in my life unless I did something about it.

I started to realize that everyone goes through those doubts, and I need to try and be the best version of me I can - not only for myself but everyone around me.

Believing in myself has always been hard. For a long time, I constantly compared myself to others, and it took away from the energy I could have been putting into my career.

Never such innocence, Never before or since, As changed itself to pastWithout a word--the menLeaving the gardens tidy, The thousands of marriagesLasting a little while longer:Never such innocence again.

Climbing is as close as we can come to flying.

The goal of all civilization all religious thought and all that sort of thing is simply to have a good time. But man gets so solemn over the process that he forgets the end.

You could feel America starting to ease up a little bit on racism, against blacks in certain pockets, and then suddenly The Cosby Show bubbled up and it was the right time for it.

Women's glances express what they dare not speak.

Don't be concerned about being disloyal to your pain by being joyous.

I let my drinking do the talking.

Obedience completes itself in understanding.

I love complex characters - strong females who are vulnerable but have a life and soul. That's what I'm drawn to and what I enjoy most.

A woman is only half of something there are usually two sides to.
