As a child, I was very shy. Painfully, excruciatingly shy. I hid a lot in my room. I was so terrified to read out loud in school that I had to have my mother ask my reading teacher not to call on me in class.

I love to see somebody who wants to be the best they can be.

I look at marriage and I think marriage is phenomenal. I think it's great. I don't hold anything against marriage.

When it comes to exchanges with people, I think, the more genuine you can be, the more giving you can be, the more you will, in the end, feel fulfilled.

I don't have time to be classified as difficult, and I don't have time to care.

I'm not too in love with the word ambition, but I was driven.

I grew up on soul music. I was a dancing little creep.
