We need to have empathy. When we lose empathy, we lose our humanity.

I believe that life is about doing. It's about changing. It's about transitioning. I can't imagine, as a human being, not being able to grow.

I practice Buddhist philosophy and contemplation but I don't know if I'm more of anything.

Happiness, I think, has to come in the beginning, truly, from feeling a sense of well-being within yourself. To me it's that incredible sense of belonging and peace within your own self and heart that really is joy.

I'm a woman who was raised to believe that you are not complete unless you have a man. Well, in some ways it's true. I am a feminist to a point. But I'm not going to deny the fact that I love to be with men.

I believe you have to start with a craft; you don't just start with a dream. You've got to put a lot of work in. If you want to pursue acting, then you go to acting class. If you want to be a dancer, then you learn to dance, which is what I did.
