I want to be back on Broadway one day. That's a dream of mine. There's nothing like live theater, and I think it's so important for me to be able to be on stage with an audience that responds.

Never compromise and sell yourself short.

God is real. God is in me and in my life. I've been blessed, and he continues to bless me, and that is one thing that I will always know for sure.

Remember to be yourself.

Hold your dreams, don't ever let it go

I think a lot of young people don't realize the price of fame is a lot higher than they imagine.

I definitely feel like, as a singer, I've been able to transition into acting because I always saw them in the same vein. It's all about connecting and telling a story.

Singing is my passion and something that I still love to do and Im always going to want to do it.

I deal with emotional pain through therapy, writing, therapy in music. I think emotional pain is best dealt with when you use art to express it.

I want to do stories that inspire people.

One thing I'm passionate about is directing. I've always wanted to direct.

Love is an attraction. It draws one person to another even though they are a thousand miles apart.

We are born to Exist, not to know, to be, not to assert ourselves.

I know when I have a problem and have done all I can to figure it, I keep listening in a sort of inside silence 'til something clicks and I feel a right answer.

If we have true love with sympathy and patient labor, we shall not go about scrutinizing our neighbor's shortcomings.

All that we are is the result of what we have thought; what we think we become.

If I have an hour in a city, I go to vintage stores first because it's so much cooler to find a piece that is unique. I love the thought of some girl having worn it before and living her life in it.

Most people want their representatives to get something done.

I wanted to become a champ - I was surrounded by champs in my family and in my neighborhood - and because of this stupid accident, I lost my opportunity.

The world inside myself is vaster and richer than this paltry plane, peopled with mere galaxies and gods.
