I really hate the duties of being a celebrity, like getting dressed up for the red carpet.

The most important thing you wear is your personality.

I was an open, smiley and gregarious child. I could make friends in 30 seconds wherever I went.

To me, the tragedy about this whole image-obsessed society is that young girls get so caught up in just achieving that they forget to realize that they have so much more to offer the world.

As a child, I didn't know what I didn't have. I'm thankful for the challenges early on in my life because now I have a perspective on the world and kind of know what's important.

It's so reassuring to have a woman heroine who triumphs with more than just what she has on the outside who has more to offer the world than just a pretty picture.

It would be impossible to be a woman in Western culture and not have your own issues about your image and what you look like.

I'm okay if people don't know who I am, but if you remember my character that would be great.

I am trying to be guided by my passion.

Am I Latin? Am I American? What the hell am I? I love my culture and I'm very proud of my culture

I know that having the perfect body doesn't fix all your problems, or make you love yourself more. To me, it's all about being comfortable in your own skin.

Every divorce represents a broken dream, a shattered hope, a ruined expectation.

Lord I thank you for the grace of living life.

Those who own much have much to fear.

When I was growing up, we were taught in school that North Koreans, and especially the North Korean leadership, were all devils.

Don't let schooling interfere with your education.

Scientology is not a White religion. It is not just for White people

Writing is not a profession. It's a calling. It's almost holy.

America is not a country that wanders around trusting people with power. This is a country that wants accountability.

The world has its fling at lawyers sometimes, but its very denial is an admission. It feels, what I believe to be the truth, that of all secular professions this has the highest standards.

I've always had to create my own markets and I've always been at a juncture in my career.
