I think the lion, besides the elephant, was the one animal that I just started thinking about so much.

I think having wild, huge hair, is me being my own version of a lioness.

I remember just looking at this lioness, she was staring at me, and we just had this weird connection.

I've always loved vintage and I never like to have something someone else has.

The women in my family are just strong women who do their own thing, so I knew I needed to have individuals like that.

You need to have honest things in the world. Even if people don't understand it, if it's coming from you, that's already important.

My main goal was to not tell my mom anything or anyone anything. Even within our family, we like to do it ourselves, we like to be our own boss, and we don't like asking for help.

I love to feel that I'm not above anyone.

This world is going in all sorts of directions, but I think all you can do is get people to think about things in a different way, because sometimes people aren't even thinking.

You're just always growing. I feel like it's been very fast growth, but super exciting and I know I'll look back and feel like 'Yes, things were stressful, but it was also such an exciting time.'

As I got older, I started to do it more and more, and I wanted to learn all of the different types. I grew up doing modern, so I wanted to learn ballet, tap, jazz, and African - just everything.

Beauty was not simply something to behold

In the beginning, the price of giving great love is risking that it won't be returned. Until you understand, of course, that great love is always returned. With interest.

Everything has happened, is happening, and will happen FOR YOU (if you BELIEVE and ACTIVELY LIVE by this mentality)!

I think that my biggest attribute to any success that I have had is hard work. There really is no substitute for working hard.

Where is Barbie?" The female shifter snickered and choked it off. "Is there a stripper pole?

Far too often animals are put to sleep when they could be saved through proper care and nursing.

I'm not fussy about the medium I work in. I'll do television radio, you know. I have to, because that's the only way I can do continually good roles.

If people don't like me for whatever I do, for being me, then that's too bad. I don't want to change to be something that I'm not for other people to like me.

Real success is doing things right every day by not forgetting to express love to your friends.
