Creativity is connected to your passion, that light inside you that drives you. . . . Your creativity is not a bad boyfriend. It is a really warm older Hispanic lady who has a beautiful laugh and loves to hug.

I think the hardest thing is to know what you want, ask for it, and then to stop talking.

The earlier you learn that you should focus on what you have, and not obsess about what you don't have, the happier you will be.

If the goal is doing good stuff and working with your friends ... if you’re doing that then you’re succeeding.

Girls have to fight against a lot of the same stuff we did growing up... peer pressure, exploitation, etc. But what worries me the most is this trend that caring about something isn't cool. That it's better to comment on something than to commit to it. That it's so much cooler to be unmotivated and indifferent.

Opening your heart and being courageous and telling people that you care about them or like them or that you think they're special only makes you a better, bigger, kinder, softer, more loving person, and only attracts more love into your life.

Forgiveness is something that's always possibility.
