I live my life with love. I live my life with compassion. I live my life hoping the best for absolutely everyone, no matter how they feel about me. And when you live that way, it's amazing how beautiful every day can be.

Because I take very seriously the idea that I can make an impact in the world, I hold back my voice so I can make more of an impact when I do use it. A cause like One Billion Rising is something I want to scream about, and I want you to take that scream seriously because I don't fall out of nightclubs. I don't have photographers capture me spending untold amounts on a handbag.

I think I was raised in a solidly upper-middle class family who had really strong values and excess was not one of the things that my family put up with.

Im much happier talking with people than I am flirting with them.

I'm convinced that a few guys I've dated are gay, and they won't admit it. I think we've all done that.

I really don't drink, I don't do drugs. I feel like right now I've been given so many opportunities I don't want to mess it up with those things.

I've been extraordinarily successful for my age. I think for probably anyone's age, I'm very fortunate.
