Kids who drink alcohol, fairly regularly before they're 14 have a 48% chance... of becoming alcoholics.

People who overcome their fears every day, without fanfare, without recognition. Quiet, everyday courage, that’s what I admire most.

You know how you wake up in the morning and sometimes you look gorgeous and other times you look like you got hit by a mack truck? I realized that my mack truck is food. If I have no sugar, yeast or wine, I have no undereye bags and my skin is perfect.

The message I got from my father was that life is hard, but you just don't quit. I am grateful that I didn't let fear get the best of me. It only holds you back from possibilities and greatness. You've got to kick fear to the side, because the payoff is huge.

If I can play a little part in the world's healing, and making it a better place than when I came, then I just thank God for that chance.

No one can take away your pain, so don't let anyone take away your happiness.

A guy at ABC told me to change my name and get a nose job. I said 'You get a nose job.'
