I suppose I'm very aware of time and of memories and of enjoying life... not just doing the right thing and being a useful person, which I certainly wanna be and believe that I am. I hold onto my family really tight and try to be as good a woman as I can be in my life.

War is so complex; human nature is so complex. There's no filmmaker who has ever figured it out perfectly.

If being sane is thinking there's something wrong with being different, I'd rather be completely #$%^&^& mental.

I've often felt unattractive or different looking. As I've grown up, I've felt more comfortable in my own skin. It may sound cliche, but when you feel beautiful and strong on the inside, it shows on the outside.

I never save things and I never take pictures. I wanna live in the moment. I don't wanna be focusing on the past.

If you ask people what they've always wanted to do, most people haven't done it. That breaks my heart.

And I didn't know what that meant for a long time. It was only when I began to travel and look and live beyond my home that I understand my responsibility to others.
