I'm an impulse buyer. There are so many great things online! Having two kids, I feel like that's an easy, fun way to shop without letting it take up your entire day.

When we are afraid we ought not to occupy ourselves with endeavoring to prove that there is no danger, but in strengthening ourselves to go on in spite of the danger.

I have a band called M&O. We were working on our first album in 2011 or 2012. We were looking for people to collaborate with, and I met Chance through a Young Chicago Authors poetry slam.

Life is more than breath and a heartbeat; meaning and purpose are the life of life.

Eugenic goals are most likely to be attained under another name than eugenics.

I just think women are funnier than men.

When I mentor, I tell people that don't have to look like a supermodel but you have got to feel your best, look your best, and be confident.

Opportunities energize the faithful and paralyze the fearful.
