Yara: Youre a great warrior. I saw the bodies above your gates. Which one gave you the tougher fight, the cripple or the six year old?

There are two conflicting philosophies that I love: "Everything happens for a reason," as well as "you can change everything that you have control over."

Week-by-week you grow with your character and it's an interesting challenge.

I'm lucky; my parents have never said to me, "You're a kid, so you just don't know." They say, "How can we discuss the world and learn from these events together?"

I feel like there's no need to put on a heel that's too high. There's nothing cute about wobbling. There's nothing cute about not wanting to dance or walk somewhere because you're in pain.

I am all about comfort and whatever comes along with comfort. I wear a lot of sweats. But Im also very preppy naturally.

For me, personally, Im usually not on my phone that much. I prefer listening to old radio shows and watching foreign films than tweeting.

I like to be in control of my body. Also, I love getting into character and exploring a different aspect of who I am.

I try to preface everything with "this isn't new." Because most social movements have happened before and I get that. Nothing I'm doing is new.

I really love hip hop. My cousin Nas came out with an album Life Is Good, and I love that album, but I also love Maroon 5.

I really love acting, but I also really want to be a historian, so its really confusing.

To move into what God has in mind for you, it is necessary to discover your purpose, to know where you are going, and to understand the reason for your existence.

I think when you move past your fear and you go after your dreams wholeheartedly, you become free. Know what I'm saying? Move past the fear.

Religious freedom is too sacred a right to be restricted or prohibited in any degree without convincing proof that a legitimate interest of the state is in grave danger.

Definition of a classic: a book everyone is assumed to have read and often thinks they have.

After 'Bridesmaids,' women know who I am.

But if kids take up things like hockey and football they will go back to it.

The only person on the planet saying derogatory things about his woman is the black man.

Knowledge talks, wisdom listens.

No, I'm not clever. I've always cared more for people than for ideas.
