If I ever start talking to you about my "Craft", my "Instrument", you have permission to shoot me.

I know certain actors are totally screwed up on drugs, yet it gets covered up. Why wasn't I excused for "Exhaustion" or "The Flu" ?

Everyone is like a butterfly, they start out ugly and awkward and then morph into beautiful graceful butterflies that everyone loves.

I am obsessed with ice cubes, obsessed.

There's something liberating about not pretending. Dare to embarrass yourself, Risk.

If you're going to go through hell... I suggest you come back learning something.

I want people to love me, but it's not going to hurt me if they don't.

I love romance. I'm a sucker for it. I love it so much. It's pathetic.

I believe that everything happens for a reason, but I think it's important to seek out that reason, that's how we learn.

I don't want to be stinky poo poo girl, I want to be happy flower child.

I think its nice when people find love, because I feel like everyone deserves it.

I'm not after fame and success and fortune and power. It's mostly (that I want) to have a good job and have good friends, that's the good stuff in life.

Life is very interesting... in the end, some of your greatest pains become your greatest strengths.

When I lay my head on the pillow at night I can say I was a decent person today. That's when I feel beautiful.

I get to be a kid now, because I wasn't a kid when I was supposed to be one. But in some ways, I'm like an old woman, lived it, seen it, done it, been there, have the T-shirt.

I used to look in the mirror and feel shame, I look in the mirror now and I absolutely love myself.

It's only through listening that you learn, and I never want to stop learning.

Every morning I stay in bed for ten minutes to ponder my place in the universe, then I wash my face and check my karma.

Love is the hardest habit to break and the most difficult to satisfy.
