It's always fun to get to do things that stretch you and that you don't get to do a lot, but you never know until you see it.

Real life is crazier than fiction.

At our core, we just want to know that we matter.

Ultimately everyone, no matter who you are, we all at our core want to just know that we matter.

When I meditate in the morning, it really changes my day and my relationship with my day.

Even in the most grieving of losses, or whatever sort of pain you're sitting in, we can bear it.

Really anything can happen at any time and we are very addicted to comfort. Life is just not always comfortable.

It can be so terrifying to open yourself up to true love. That love can be with your mate, with your child, with yourself, because we are ultimately such vulnerable little creatures in this world.

We must stop the trend of closing schools and building prisons.

Under your skin the moon is alive.

I've grown up, everyone's got to grow up. But there's something inside me, I'm always going to have that little sort of, how do you say, child streak.

I had always been a fatalist about my career. What was to be was to be.

The only secure knowledge is that I exist.

I would say I'm pretty well at ease with my sexuality, but I'm an individual before I am a female.
