When I was 15, I worked at a dry cleaner because I wanted Abercrombie Fitch jeans. My mom told me I could have $20 jeans, not $70 jeans, unless I was willing to work for them. So I did!

In California, I do like to just chill out and go to the beach, but I love the energy here. I feel very productive when I'm in New York.

When it comes to fashion, I love skinny jeans, a simple top, and a great handbag.

I'm very much a girl that likes to have options. That's the way I am with fashion, and that's the way I am with my life.

I am certainly not perfect. I don't think you should try to be perfect for anyone. When you come to terms with that, then you're OK.

When girls come up and say, "You're my role model," it's really flattering, but it's also really scary because I'm not perfect and I'm going to make mistakes.

I'm a bit of a workaholic. When I feel like I'm not doing something, it drives me insane.

I live a dual life. On the red carpet, it's complete glam. But at home, I'm a jeans and T-shirt kind of girl. Simple can be beautiful.

But I don't do the diet thing anymore. I'm a big believer in feeding your body what it needs. Deny yourself something and you're going to end up shoving your face full of it.

Don't throw petals on the floor if they have no meaning. I would rather have a fun, casual relationship than have someone pretending they're completely in love with me.

I think it's better that life is kind of like a mystery, I think that's what drives us.

When it seems there is no way out, it indicates that God wants to manifest His power and glory

Hope is the only bee that makes honey without flowers.

Anything that is successful is a series of mistakes.

In fact, I think new media is going to make a big difference with injecting more people of color into Hollywood and non-Hollywood.

A saint is one to be for two when three and you make five and two and cover. A at most. Saint saint a saint.

I don't know what "normal" means, anyway.

When I no longer thrill to the first snow of the season, I'll know I'm growing old.

Ask 'What' and 'When.' The 'How' will naturally be revealed.

I try to educate the public and let them make the decisions for themselves.
