I get really frustrated with people who turn their noses up at talent shows like 'The Voice' and 'X-Factor.'

I see myself as a bit of a traveller. I am a workaholic.

I'm not ashamed of showing my curves to the world. Bodies are beautiful when they're full and healthy and fit. I've always had curves and I'll always be proud of them.

I feel liberated, empowered, inspired and motivated. Fear holds you back from achieving what you want in life.

I don't live my life seeking validation from people on social media.

Who doesn't know the easy, breezy, beautiful Covergirl line? I'm so excited to be the face of the brand in Australia and help all girls find and rock their inner Covergirl!

I love my body because it's what I've been given. Being too thin is just as unhealthy as being obese.

You can, of course, be a sexy, strong female and be a good role model.

I come from a family of tall, curvy women. I developed in my body and my shape far earlier, so from a young age I accepted it. I embraced it and saw it as an advantage.

People like to put you in a little box, and that's where they are comfortable with you being.

I love kids, and I'm great with them, but I also love being able to give them back.

Awake, O brave one! Arise, O lion-heart! Be the messenger that spreads compassion.

The true meaning of your life doesn't lie in your experiences, but in your frequent positive interpretations of your past and present.

Im not supposed to be within two hundred feet of a school or a Chuck E. Cheese.

Vulnerability is something that I negotiate every day.

I loved playing Sasha. You don't have this on every job, or every show or movie, but every day was really an adventure, character wise, for what I got to do at that age.

We kids feared many things in those days - werewolves, dentists, North Koreans, Sunday School - but they all paled in comparison with Brussels sprouts.

Maybe all theatre is going to be irrelevant for all time.

Crying is one of the highest devotional songs. One who knows crying, knows spiritual practice

And he did see--that life was rotten, that there were no heroes, really, and that you couldn't trust anybody, not even yourself.

The art business is a rarified business and appeals to an audience capable of spending money on a luxury. Too often the atmosphere in a gallery borders on snobbishness.
