It's hard to be vulnerable in front of the whole world because everyone's a critic.

When you get knocked down you get knocked down in Round 1 of life, there's Round 2.

Those that are the hardest to love, need it the most.

No matter what projects I'm taking on, I want to (do) things to help other people.

My dad abandoned me when I was about two years old. So, he wasn't around to protect me the way I needed to be protected. I started getting sexually abused from the time I was about five years old to the time I was ten. It really messed with my sense of self worth and my sense of all that was good with the world, almost.

I really want to help people. I really want to give somebody that hope that they need to keep going.

At 3, I played an innocent game of doctor, minus the stethoscope and medicine bag.
