It was the first time I realized that absolute reality could be so much more fun than fantasy.

Everyone has highs and lows that they have to learn from, but every morning I start off with a good head on my shoulders, saying to myself, 'It's going to be a good day!'.

I don't know if I am cut out to playing a bad character or not - I really should give it a shot. I would like to play the voice of a baddie, but that's really just a cop-out!

I just love fashion. I think it just expresses who you are so much.

I'm not that girl from Freaky Friday any more! I'm a real adult. In fact, I hate children! I hate them all!

During the past five years, I've learned that time flies faster than you think, and because you only live once you have to learn from your mistakes, live your dreams and be accountable.

My motto is: Live every day to the fullest - in moderation.

I live without regrets. There are certain things I have done, mistakes that I made, that I would change, but I don't regret them at all, because I've learnt from them.

My brother Cody is 19. He wants to stay out of the limelight and become a lawyer. I want him to be an entertainment lawyer, so he can help me out!

I say too much sometimes, but I'm honest, that's the important thing.

I love my red hair. It makes me spunkier.

Stop giving other people the power to control your happiness, your mind, and your life. If you don't take control of yourself and your own life, someone else is bound to try.

Inside my house, nobody was home, except everybody, but it was easy to feel like those were one and the same.

Personally, I think Mitt Romney would be a great secretary of state.

I just want my sign and I want to throw it. I think it keeps everybody on their toes.

I am concerned about the growing problem of sexual abuse and exploitation of our children.

Throughout my life, I've been gratified that I've been able to keep the child in me alive and inspire others.

It's our dreams that keep us going, that seperate us from the beasts. I wouldn't even want to live if I thought it was all just eating and sleeping and taking off my clothes.

Love is probably the most powerful force in the cosmos, capable of creating miracles.

No feature of the Obama presidency has been sadder than its constant efforts to divide us, to curry favor with some Americans by castigating others.

Writing songs for other people was never the goal for me.
