Some people would rather have a lie that makes them smile than a truth that makes them cry. I'm the opposite; I'd rather have people make me cry with the truth than try to make me smile.

I'm petrified of bees because I have an anaphylactic reaction to bees.

I'm working with UNESCO on a project called 'Thirst,' which educates children all over China and promotes awareness to the fact that 300 million people in China do not have access to water.

I do an international beauty pageant called Queen of the Universe for UNESCO, and what we do is we build kindergartens around the world.

My one main secret I did right after my pageants days, is I only wash my hair once a week. I tell everyone, 'You have to stop washing your hair so much!'

Pageants were a platform for me, and they helped me get to where I am today. You suddenly stop being just another girl, and people want to listen to what you have to say.

I must be very clear in one thing... Being a pageant girl is not who I am or what defines me.

I'm a happily declared chocoholic. I keep it everywhere, even my nightstand.

In the entirety of my life, I have never had an eating disorder.

Oh, I am such a little piggy. Everyone is always mad at me because I eat so much. They're like, 'How are you so skinny?' I eat more than my husband!

I am the lead on NBC's 'Siberia,' and I loved that experience.

Because of grace so many people will miss salvation

If you have a hobby, you be happy.

Your ego is laughing at you behind your back.

How could you cleanse yourself if you couldn’t forget?

All prisons are brimming over with innocence. It is those who cram their fellows into them, in the name of empty ideas, who are the only guilty ones.

Basically, I wake up, take care of my son for a little while, and then like, "I am gonna write!" And then I wind up.

I think that all bodies are beautiful in millions of different ways but I get down on myself too!

The power of God tenderizes and changes us, not spiritual disciplines. Spiritual disciplines only position us to receive.

Innovation requires articulation.
