People in general are used to seeing me as the naughty girl because that's what they've always cast me as.

It’s all about falling in love with yourself and sharing that love with someone who appreciates you, rather than looking for love to compensate for a self love deficit.

The price we pay for being ourselves is worth it.

I've never felt that fear is my enemy. Fear is my friend. It offers me a chance to stay alert, keep growing, continue creating something new. If you don't take that sort of risk, you learn nothing.

A man has always wanted to lay me down but he never wanted to pick me up.

I have used all the manure that has been thrown on me as fertilizer to make me stronger.

I fall in love with myself, and I want someone to share it with me. And I want someone to share me, with me.

I am learning all the time. The tombstone will be my diploma.

My recipe for life is not being afraid of myself, afraid of what I think or of my opinions.

My house was bugged. They couldn't find any information on me being a subversive because I happen to love America; I just don't like some of the things the government is doing.

Don't depend on other people to be responsible for you. Don't make yourself stressed out over nonsensical things like material things.

If a problem can be solved, there is nothing to worry about. If it can't be solved, well you can always buy chocolate :)

The least learned, for the most part, have been always most ready to write.

Find your passion and live it.

Speed provides the one genuinely modern pleasure.

“Firewall” seems both scary and protective at the same time. And how often does that happen within one word besides “military” and “government?”

If you don't know how you feel, you won't know what you want.

There are only two things a child will share willingly; communicable diseases and its mother's age.

The real is what resists symbolization absolutely.

I always had the desire to perform. If it wasn't my career now, I'd still be doing amateur dramatics. It's just something you love, and when you get paid to do it, you pinch yourself every day.

The tool user, provided the tool is made well, need not, and indeed should not, know anything about the tool.
