I try not to get personally involved in social media. It kind of makes me sick sometimes.

I'm a little bit antisocial and I recently discovered that I'm introverted. But the love between people makes me alive.

Artists and celebrities are citizens, and as such you have a responsibility to keep fighting for justice because there are monolithic power structures and systemic oppression out there.

I see people whose spirits are not broken, who continue to work for justice. That makes me feel alive, when I witness their work, and then I witness some of their dreams come to fruition.

Falling, falling, falling, falling down. Look yourself in the eye before you drown.

Love is selflessness and self-fullness; it can only be known deeply with an open, vulnerable heart.

I don't think any human being is truly free. We're so tethered to our own insecurities and hampered by our fears and our prejudices. I think it's human nature that we're never going to be free.

It's in our blind trust that love will find us, just like it has before.

You set up your place in my thoughts, moved in and made my thinking crowded.

I write because I know I am only one to control the world I created in my books.

Growing up, I had one very specific idea of what a wedding should be, and that was the wedding of Fraeulein Maria and Captain von Trapp in 'The Sound of Music.'

I love the film route and I'm gong to try my hardest to stay on it.

Reading, reading actively, strengthens the soul.

Give your freedom to someone or to something and then look at yourself what have you got? I tell you, you've got nothing left!

Little girls. They could melt the toughest hearts.

Who has choices need not choose. We must, who have none. We can love but what we lose-- What is gone is gone.

I became so consumed with trying to live up to what the public expected that I lost myself. I don't know of anyone else who can say this
