We can let our goals motivate and inspire us, but we don’t want to let them determine our happiness or self worth.

Not only is the experience of learning inspiring, the results are fulfilling.

We don’t come out of the womb thinking negatively about ourselves or others. We aren’t born talking ourselves out of our true needs and wants.

Don’t just act with kindness, think with kindness.

Inspiration builds self-esteem, it builds communities, and it builds lives. It creates paths where previous paths didn’t exist.

What if, when we are feeling less than happy, we were prescribed two genuinely inspiring experiences each day?

Just as we know when we strike a metaphorical nerve with someone, we also know when we tap into what inspires them.

Inspiration may not solve one’s deepest or darkest problems, but it can be a light when no other light shines.

I have a good mind but I don't like to bore anyone with it.

I don't want to look like Connecticut, no offense, I don't want to look like Oklahoma, I don't want to look like California. I want to be uniquely Texas. And that's not to diss anybody else.

Music is my life - acting's just a hobby.

I look at the deejay thing as a tier thing. If I'm not going to compete on that level, I'm just going to do it as a hobby.
