My Dad always told me that casting agencies are like artists picturing their paintings in their mind. They know what they want for a role and not to take it too seriously [if I dont get the part].

Life's a climb. But the view is great.

When Life Puts You in Tough Situations, Don't Say 'Why Me', Say 'Try Me'

You can't blame me for who I am.

Remember that only God can judge us; forget the haters, because Somebody loves you.
