This is how it is now. This is my life.

It's like swimming, underwater, this whole year. I just close my eyes. hold my breath, and keep kicking.

You could push people away, past their limits, even accidentally, and then it was just too late to get them back

Worrying was painful .... but compared to the alternative, a privilege

I am supposed to be where I go.

This life is mine because of good luck. And because I reached out and took it.

I always found Louise Brooks interesting. She was an icon of the silent - film era, and I knew she'd grown up in Kansas, and that she was smart and rebellious and sharp - tongued.

Someone needs to give the Pope thirteen babies. Just for a week or so. See how he likes no birth control then.

I wasn't that familiar with silent films. I didn't know, for example, how hugely popular silent films were in the 1920s, how people would go to the movies several times a week.

Yes, Louise Brooks was beautiful and intelligent, and she could be very funny, but obviously there was a deep insecurity there, a real destructive rage and immaturity.

They're animals, all right. But why are you so goddam sure that makes us human beings?

Forgiveness is the highest degree of a trust in a better man

This college would probably have the same problem as the last one did."I frowned, "What's that?""Homework.

A dog's love is only second to that of a mother's.

Why play, lounge or labour in a social wasteland? It's toxicity is contagious, and no respecter of persons. Fall back!

I remember, no matter how impossible it seemed that any given day would end, it always did. This one would, too.

Olay BB Cream is a lifesaver, and I wear it every day while I train and compete. Twenty-four-hour hydration and sheer color helps me look flawless even when faced with that unforgiving Jumbotron!

In order to remain silent Da-sein must have something to say.

Acting is my passion and Chelsea FC is my hobby.

I just think people are so used to seeing me on shows like Vampire Diaries and Pretty Little Liars, which are more geared toward teens. But in reality, I could have a 12-year-old kid.
