We went down for pilot season, I got Full House, and we wound up never leaving.

An agent saw one of the plays I did at ACT, but my mom was like, No, she's too young. I became so annoying that a year and a half later she just couldn't stand hearing me any more!

At the time, the only options were playing the local county fair. Now with American Idol and younger recording artists that have come out, there is more of an opportunity.

On my show, I'm definitely the youngest one. So going from a show where everyone is over 30, to the movie, where everyone was like 20, 25, it was like summer camp.

I was in seventh grade, and getting a part in Full House was huge. It opened so many doors for me.

The most frustrating thing for me as a singer is that people have pinpointed me as an actress who suddenly woke up one day and decided that I wanted to sing.

Acting kind of pays my bills more than music does.

I didn't go to a normal high school. It was for people in the performing arts.

I'm pretty sure this is it for the teen movie thing. It's so frustrating to read when you get to page 20 and you're like, Oy! It's the same thing again!

You learn something out of everything, and you come to realize more than ever that we're all here for a certain space of time, and, and then it's going to be over, and you better make this count.

Human reasoning can never answer the mysteries of our lives.

I've always been an outsider kid. But I had always wanted to be in a group - growing up, I loved bands like the Cranberries and K's Choice.

I dont hate L.A. There's a very beautiful side to it; it's scenic, and I can go horse riding.

I use rosewater a lot. I don't remember who taught me that, but that's my number one thing that I always use on my face and all over my body.

Let us never cease to feel compassion for those in want. Let us never tire of helping victims of injustice and oppression. He who puts his faith in the restoration of human dignity cannot be wrong.

My fans have always loved my metaphors.

The whole point of life is learning to live with the consequences of the bad decision we've made.

All knowledge is partial, infinitesimally partial. Reason is a net thrown out into an ocean. What truth it brings in is a fragment, a glimpse, a scintillation of the whole truth.

You have to 'be'' before you can 'do', and do before you can 'have'.
