I love Cheryl [Hines] so much and had so much fun with her. Off set we got on so well and would tell stories.

Sometimes it's the smallest decisions that can change your life forever.

People - not just in their teenage years - hold on to this fantasy of love when they're not ready to have a real relationship.

Yeah, I like being on my own. I do. I tend to be a loner, so I'm okay. I'm not okay when I have to be around everyone all the time.

In my case, when I am trying to be "kind" I often default in a sort of toothless loving-all stance that is, actually, not kind, because it is not truthful.

Jesus Christ came into the world to save sinners, even persecutors, the worst of sinners: his righteousness is sufficient for them; his Spirit is able to purify and change their hearts.
