I did get a degree in special education.

When the answer to all my dreams is as close as a touch away, why am I here holding back what I'm trying to say?

I don’t really do New Year’s resolutions because I don’t think you should have to wait until December to start working on how to change yourself. I think if you’ve got a problem, you need to fix it now.

I thought about that the other day after I went to the grocery store and had to sign fifteen autographs before leaving. On one hand, it's just so flattering. On the other hand, sometimes it would be nice to get the bread and leave, you know?

I went to school for special education. I always assumed when I had the opportunity I would love to try and help kids with disabilities.

I never want to produce anything that a family could not enjoy together. I never want to create art that would embarrass my own children later.

Perseverance. I got cut twice. I got cut in Charlotte. I didn't have to go to Atlanta to audition. I could have said, "I'm not cut out for this." But I said, "I think I'm better than that, I can go try again." So I went to Atlanta and I made it through. Then I got cut the first time around. I could have told them I didn't want to come back for the Wild Card show but I did and look how far I got.
