I feel like as a generation, we sell ourselves short. I just expected more from us.

Like every other girl in the world, my most embarrassing moment had to do with a guy completely turning me down. His loss!

My experiences remind me that it's those black clouds that make the blue skies even more beautiful.

I'm very friendly or whatever, but I would hardly say that I'm that cookie-cutter. I don't live in L.A. or New York. I live in Texas, and I go to hole-in-the-wall bars, so there's no paparazzi there.

I never said I was a 'good girl.' I'm not a bad girl.

People keep asking me if I am having more fun, being blonde, but I always have fun! Whether I'm blonde, redhead, or brunette! I always have fun.

God will never give you anything you can't handle, so don't stress.

I'm a hygiene freak. I'm like obsessive-compulsive when it comes to washing your hands.

Honestly, I just think we all have special gifts, everyone. You know, obviously, some are more noticeable than others and that's why there's the limelight. Everybody's in it.

Everything changes, but beauty remains.

I've never been more nervous in my life than singing the national anthem at the Super Bowl.

I felt that my views and philosophies had been changed overnight. The philosophies that i had gladly carved in stone, recited and danced upon.

Sometimes I would almost rather have people take away years of my life than take away a moment.

I am proud of being a Greek of the diaspora.

The baritone can serve functions that the alto and tenor cannot, in orchestral voicing

I know that all things are possible through Jesus Christ.

What is really needed to make democracy function is not knowledge of facts, but right education.

One of the few greatest satisfactions of this life is to handle problems efficiently and well.
