All we need to do is pay attention to ourselves and pay attention when somebody gives you a compliment based on something that you do naturally. Then that lets you know that that's your talent. I mean, talents come in so many different sizes, so many different colors, so many different ways.

My goal was just to live a good life that I was happy with. And I wasn't exactly sure that that meant being the star of a movie.

My beauty is dark chocolate and it's delicious and it's sweet.

I'm not a big fan of doing what my mother wants me to do, like any daughter.

Just relax. When I was younger, I made myself the victim of catastrophic thinking. Anything that went wrong was the end of the world. But as I've gotten older, I've learned to stop myself and say, 'Hey babe, calm down. Tomorrow there will be sun.'

I live my life because I dare. I dare to show up when everyone else might hide their faces and hide their bodies in shame.

I think people look at me and don't expect much. Even though, I expect a whole lot.
