Two things to remember in life: take care of your thoughts when you are alone, and take are of your words when you are with people.

Of course I got lipstick all over my lil' nose in about 5 seconds, nothing's changed.

Like wildflowers you must allow yourself to grow in all the places people thought you never would.

I think I'm speaking for a bunch of girls when I say that the idea that feminism is completely natural and shouldn't even be something that people find mildly surprising. It's just a part of being a girl in 2013.

A lot of times when people meet me, theyll definitely try to make me feel young or inexperienced. Like, Its all taken care of. Teenagers are such a discerning group of people. Theyll immediately sniff out anything that feels contrived. Im, like, constantly scanning myself to see if Im some corporate executive version of a teenager. Ive developed something of a fearsome reputation. People know that if you talk down to me, I will roll my eyes or whatever.

The smarter the person, the more boring the instagram account.

Don't be afraid. Be the kind of person your mother warned you about.
