It takes a lot of courage to face up to things you can't do because we feed ourselves so much denial.

Happiness is nothing but temporary moments here and there - and I love those. But I would be bored out of my mind if I were happy all the time.

I like to be around people who are very passionate. People that won't fight but that will be very over-protective and outspoken about their opinion, their point of view, their ideas.

The biggest battle that I have is being a woman in the world. That takes center stage for me.

Sometimes we have to be patient because the one thing that is inevitable in life is evolution. Whether it comes at the pace that we are expecting it or not, it’s inevitable.

As a woman, you spend so much time either cooking or getting ready to go somewhere. I like to have music when I'm doing either of these things.

I'm a kid from New York, so urban life reflected into art and music was around me and accessible and tangible.
