Make bold choices and make mistakes. It’s all those things that add up to person you become.

If I make a fool of myself, who cares? I’m not frightened by anyone’s perception of me.

The truth is I love being alive. And I love feeling free. So if I can’t have those things then I feel like a caged animal and I‘d rather not be in cage. I’d rather...

It is not where you start out in life that counts the most, it is how you choose to face it.

I’m not somebody that thinks about destiny and fate, but I don’t walk away from it when something unfolds.

People have two sides, a good side and a bad side, a past, a future. We must embrace both in someone we love.

I like someone who is a little crazy but coming from a good place. I think scars are sexy because it means you made a mistake that led to a mess.

People say that you’re going the wrong way when it’s simply a way of your own.

Our diversity is our strength. What a dull and pointless life it would be if everyone was the same.

Every day we choose who we are by how we define ourselves.

Figure out who you are separate from your family, and the man or woman you’re in a relationship with. Find who you are in this world and what you need to feel good alone. I...

If you ask people what they’ve always wanted to do, most people haven’t done it. That breaks my heart.

There’s something about death that is comforting. The thought that you could die tomorrow frees you to appreciate your life now.

Life comes with many challenges. The ones that should not scare us are the ones we can take on and take control of.

Love – is when you wish all the best to the people you love, when you put their interests and well-being above their own. Always.

Different is good. When someone tells you that you are different, smile and hold you head up and be proud.

I try to lead by example, being conscious of others and being responsible.

I am a strong believer that without justice, there is no peace. No lasting peace anyway.

It’s better to have nobody, than to have someone who is half there, or doesn’t want to be there.

People always slow down for a train wreck. It’s like junk food. If you don’t feel good about yourself, you want to read crap about other people, like gossip in high school. You don’t understand...

When I get logical, and I don’t trust my instincts – that’s when I get in trouble.

If I think more about death than some other people, it is probably because I love life more than they do.

Just start off with the same goals in mind. If you have the same values, same goals then you’ll be on track for the same future.

If I didn’t have my films as an outlet for all the different sides of me, I would probably be locked up.

I’ve never lived my life in the opinion of others. I believe I’m a good person. I believe I’m a good mom. But that’s for my kids to decide, not for the world

I’m very happy and very excited when my adrenalin is going.

Without pain, there would be no suffering, without suffering we would never learn from our mistakes. To make it right, pain and suffering is the key to all windows, without it, there is no way...

I never felt settled or calm. You can’t really commit to life when you feel that.

Anything that feels good couldn’t possibly be bad.

If every choice you make comes from an honest place, you’re solid, and nothing anybody can say about you can rock you or change your opinion.

Nothing would mean anything if I didn’t live a life of use to others.

It’s hard to be clear about who you are when you are carrying around a bunch of baggage from the past. I’ve learned to let go and more more quickly into the next place.

I never felt settled or I’ve been reckless, but I’m not a rebel without a cause.calm. You can’t really commit to life when you feel that.

It is a myth that rape is an inevitable part of conflict . . . There is nothing inevitable about it. It is a weapon of war aimed at civilians. It has nothing to do...
