I believe acting is very physical, and when you have to fight or do those kinds of things, it takes a lot of respect not to allow yourself to go off and hurt yourself or someone else.

My advice for achieving success is to make a career choice that reflects your passion. Then work your craft a little bit each day - even if someone's not paying you to do it. Try to balance your social life with your educational (or professional) life, and have patience.

I can only control what I do. I can try to suggest and be open, but trust is the key.

I practice yoga every day. The practice calms my spirit, and allows me to be present.

I'm impatient sometimes.

I feel that we have come a long way as American people, and we have to start looking at ourselves as human beings.

I have a lot of very, very powerful women in my life. My mother being the first.
