I wear my heart on my sleeve and live my life as openly and honestly as I can.

I believe in sexual monogamy, but I don't believe in emotional monogamy.

Everybody knows what love is in one way or another, and everybody has an answer of what love means to them.

I refused from the beginning to restrict myself to any sort of lifestyle.

If I have to be objectified in my twenties to be taken seriously in my thirties, I'm doing something right.

As long as my work continues to speak for itself outside of what I look like, I'm okay.

I love the consistency of working on television. You don't get that in working on film. But, it's all about the right projects. I'm reading different stuff, every single day. I'm actively seeking.

I need different people to tap into different energies for different things.

I'm not trying to redefine sexuality or humanity or say that my answer is right and yours is wrong. I'm just happy with who I am.

Someone that is not close with their family is an immediate deal breaker for me.

I feel like the last tattoo you got is usually your favorite.

I wouldn't give Satan a snowball's chance in Hell against a woman's ego.

Dad is a new person. A person who has learned that forgiveness is better then revenge. Next year, we'll teach him that heart attacks are not like women. You just can't keep having them!

I had no monarch in my life, and cannot rule myself; and when I try to organize, my little force explodes and leaves me bare and charred.

That love which does not build a foundation on good sense is doomed.

My skin is like a map of where my heart has been And I can't hide the marks It's not a negative thing.

When you are going through something that heavy, for me anyway, I couldn't imagine writing about anything else. I always tend to write about what's most prevalent in my mind.

Say, did you read what this writer just dug up in George Washington's diary? I was so ashamed I sat up all night reading it.

Even the paradise of fools is not an unpleasant abode while it is inhabitable.
