My great goal in life is to try to remember that everything is of equal value.

If you knew everyone's story, you would love them. You can't really hate anyone if you know everything that happened to them between their birth and now; why they became the way they became; why they have walls up or down. If you truly know someone, you'd get it.

I find the worst audition is the no audition.

I don't believe that everyone else really cares what I do all the time. I think in general you have to follow your own path and your own heart and not worry about what everybody else wants you to do. They should be worried about what they're going to do.

I can't think of any better representation of beauty than someone who is unafraid to be herself.

I know that when you're a teenager - sometimes when you're an adult - what sets you apart can sometimes feel like a burden and it's not. And a lot of the time, it's what makes you great.

Anyone who's making a huge impact or speaking out about what they believe in or who's brave enough to be themselves is a superhero to me.
