If no tender words are spoken, no tender hearts can be broken.

Remember, people only rain on your parade because they're jealous of your sun and tired of their shade.

If I don't like something that's going on in my life, I change it. And I don't sit and complain about it for a year.

I've made mistakes in my life for sure.

Embrace your curves and who you are. I feel proud if young girls look up to me and say, "I'm curvy, and I'm proud of it now".

I'm not trying to influence anyone else; I'm not saying, "Do what I do." I think it's a little pretentious to say, "I'm a role model"; I would never say that, and I don't think of myself that way.

I love when people underestimate me and then become pleasantly surprised.

It's time to recognise the Armenian Genocide.

Take and chance and don't ever look back. Never have regrets, just lessons learned.

I love the sun but don't have the time to get a good tan and keep it year-round, so I am a huge fan of tanning products.

I think I'll always be a hopeless romantic.

The concept that you cannot own the airwaves has caused far more harm than good.

If you are dissatisfied with they way things are, then you have got to resolve to change them.

You don't have a soul. You are a Soul. You have a body.

What it sees there isn't so much a face as the expression of a predicament.

You need to be a good screen partner. It's very meaningful to me to be a part of great acting performances.

Perhaps a normal man is supposed to be stupid-how do we know? Perhaps it's even very beautiful.

God is infinitely creative, and everyone's different, and everyone has a different path, a different lesson, a different song, a different face, a different voice.

Philosophy is an elegant thing, if anyone modestly meddles with it; but if they are conversant with it more than is becoming, it corrupts them.
