I like necklaces that are short, the way skateboarders used to wear them in the seventies.

When I go home, I play with my baby dolls and strollers and stuffed animals, pretend like they're real dogs.

I like playing characters with as many emotions as possible. I'd love to play a really crazy person - someone truly out of her mind.

I love the '70s, I'm very into that right now. The long Chloe dresses, very Virgin Suicides.

If people say "no" to you and it's something you really want to do, keep going and you'll succeed.

I'm pretty good with not being afraid to just go up to people and introduce myself.

If I asked you, "Do you think you're beautiful?" everyone should say yes.

I would like to continue acting. But also - if this is a dream world where everything could become true - I'd want to be a ballerina.

It's fun because you can escape and learn about what other people's minds have created. It inspires you to think maybe you could come up with a creature yourself. I like that.

Everyone should love themselves, should think that they're beautiful.

We're constantly taking pictures of ourselves. It's a bit scary, because images are essentially dead, so we judge beauty on something that isn't alive.

Mass amateurization of publishing makes mass amateurization of filtering a forced move.

Foreknowledge is power.

Writing is the thing that sustains me and keeps me going. It is a form of self-preservation for me.

We cannot live, suffer or die for somebody else, for suffering is too precious to be shared.

If you can build it, you can unbuild it

No, I don’t wear contacts, and contrary to what some people have said, I do not have a glass eye.

The stories I write are often literal to events that have happened or observations that I've made, and sometimes they're fantastical.

We are not sent to do battle for God, but to be used by God in His battles.

We exist solely because we have a body and a mind ? a mind that arises out of the body. If this were true, we would cease to exist after our body was gone.

It is sufficient for you that the one who envies you is distressed at the time of your joy.
