Even when I was young I wanted to be an actress. I knew the actors and the paparazzi. It was just kind of always in my landscape. It was never directed at me, but it was always somewhere so I could see how it operated and I could see it from afar and go 'Wow, that's not really glamorous, it's kind of exhausting not having any privacy.' So it was never something I pursued. The first time I saw the billboard for Pretty Little Liars I almost got into a car accident!
Troian BellisarioI love being natural. I never feel more beautiful then after Iโve been to the beach and my hairโs just a crazy mess of salt curls, or when Iโve just been outside all day hiking. I feel like my skin is at its most beautiful during those times, too - so I try not to do a lot.
Troian BellisarioFalling is scary but good practice for life. We must fall. In love. Out of love. Into new experiences. Out of old habits. Deeper and further into ourselves. We must fall, life is falling over forward. The only choice we have is how we let go.
Troian BellisarioI remember when I first wanted to act my parents were supportive, but it was that they were like please, if you can find something else in the world, don't do this. So it wasn't even they're like 'Oh we've been waiting for you to arrive, welcome to the family business' kind of thing.

Troian BellisarioI like wearing my dads sweaters because I knew that he wore them when he held me when I was a baby.
Troian BellisarioMy friends and my family - the people who I love and who love me back. Whenever I get down, when I want to crawl under a rock, I just look around at them and I see how rich my life is. You have to remember whatโs most important in life. I am loved by so many people and have a wonderful job. I know Iโm incredibly blessed. I am a completely lucky human being.
