I think failure is just a part of life. You can't avoid it in anything. I just accept it as a part of life and something that's going to happen, and you use it to grow. You use it, you learn from it, and you grow from it.

There are those special projects that don't ever feel like work but just a blessing to be a part of, and 'Revolution' is one of those projects.

I really am happy that I met my agency and my management company, because they see me as a person and not just a Latin woman.

As I got older, I would study privately with some coaches. Then I found Lee Strasberg, which I loved.

I guess just accepting failure is the thing. I don't really look at it as a failure. I look at them as learning lessons and things you grow from but not really a failure, because that's life.

I can be a nice person, but if someone is messing with someone I care about, the tougher side comes out a little more.

People that do good in the world or that want to do good, that have good intentions and want to help other people, and people that aren't concerned with themselves but more [with] others and helping in service of others - that inspires me.
