I was in a very dark place for a long time. It's just so hard to have normalcy.

Like every other girl in the world, my most embarrassing moment had to do with a guy completely turning me down. His loss!

My experiences remind me that it's those black clouds that make the blue skies even more beautiful.

I'm very friendly or whatever, but I would hardly say that I'm that cookie-cutter. I don't live in L.A. or New York. I live in Texas, and I go to hole-in-the-wall bars, so there's no paparazzi there.

I never said I was a 'good girl.' I'm not a bad girl.

People keep asking me if I am having more fun, being blonde, but I always have fun! Whether I'm blonde, redhead, or brunette! I always have fun.

God will never give you anything you can't handle, so don't stress.

I'm a hygiene freak. I'm like obsessive-compulsive when it comes to washing your hands.

Honestly, I just think we all have special gifts, everyone. You know, obviously, some are more noticeable than others and that's why there's the limelight. Everybody's in it.

Everything changes, but beauty remains.

I've never been more nervous in my life than singing the national anthem at the Super Bowl.

But you're an artist. you should know there's more to a story than the part happening right now.

When swimming into a dark tunnel,there arrives a point of no return when you no longer have enough breath to double back.your choice is to swim forward into the unknown....and pray for an exit

Anarchism and anthropology go well together because anthropologists know that a society without a state is possible because so many exist.

Man goes far away or near but God never goes far-off; he is always standing close at hand, and even if he cannot stay within he goes no further than the door.

I was going to be a writer. One person believed I could do it: my mom. Having her faith in me was like carrying around the Hammer of Thor.

I'm capable of anything, my imagination can give me wings

It's important for you to do what you love and not let anyone bring you down.

You can't be creative when you're completely happy.

You can't legislate sobriety.

I think photojournalism is documentary photography with a purpose.
