One day I had to sit down with myself and decide that I loved myself no matter what my body looked like and what other people thought about my body. I got tired of hating myself.

Personally, it’s rude. You got three kids with the lady, she just did 17 years for you and you’re not gonna leave your...whatever!

If they hadn’t tried to break me down, I wouldn’t know that I’m unbreakable.

It doesn't have anything to do with how the world perceives you. What matters is what you see.

I didn't want to be an actress at all, or famous even. I certainly enjoy acting now, absolutely. Time will tell whether or not I enjoy fame.

I don't know any teenager with a positive attitude.

I learned to love myself, because I sleep with myself every night and I wake up with myself every morning, and if I don't like myself, there's no reason to even live the life.

My beauty is dark chocolate and it's delicious and it's sweet.

One day I decided that I was beautiful, and so I carried out my life as if I was a beautiful girl.

I live my life because I dare. I dare to show up when everyone else might hide their faces and hide their bodies in shame.

I was born to stand out. I don't care whether or not people will find me attractive on screen. That's not why I became an actor. I know that more and more with each new role.

Knowledge was like candy: you never turned it down, especially if you didn't have to work too hard to get it.

Joy is a practice, not an involuntary state.

A Prayer does not need to become a ritual.

Ari is beautiful beyond comparison, and she has my heart and my soul for eternity. I thought I made that abundantly clear last night, but it appears I have further work to do.

So, it's good to be here, wherever I am.

You know, I've had blowups with my coach too. The same thing happens, it just wasn't as evident back then because they didn't have so many cameras and ways to see things happen.

You know who helped me a lot? Jane Fonda. She said, Look at how many times I've been up and I've been down. So don't worry about anything.

Sometimes, challenges and struggles are exactly what we need in our lives...May you welcome every effort, every struggle, and every challenge...May you open your wings and fly!

The peculiar thing is that, in focusing only on the here and now, Buddhism seems to despise the world.

A MAN FEARED A man feared that he might find an assassin; Another that he might find a victim. One was more wise than the other.
