We don't get to pick the genes we want. There's room in this world for beauty to be diverse.

I would love to have a career that's governed by the material; I always want to be part of stories that I feel are worthwhile.

I've always had that going on: "I can't," and then I do, so the voice says, "Well, that was an exception!" It's a tug-of-war between two voices: the one who knows she can and the one who's scared she can't.

You can’t eat beauty. It doesn’t feed you.

It doesn't escape me for one moment that so much joy in my life is thanks to so much pain in someone else's.

You fail, and then what? Life goes on. It's only when you risk failure that you discover things.

What I've learned from myself is that I don't have to be anybody else. Myself is good enough.
