I feel privileged that people are looking up to me and perhaps a dream will be born because of my presence.
Lupita Nyong'oYou fail, and then what? Life goes on. It's only when you risk failure that you discover things.
Lupita Nyong'oI come from a loving, supportive family, and my mother taught me that there are more valuable ways to achieve beauty than just through your external features. She was focused on compassion and respect, and those are the things that ended up translating to me as beauty. Beautiful people have many advantages, but so do friendly people.... I think beauty is an expression of love.
