Those who reproach injustice do so because they are afraid not of doing it but of suffering it.
I'm strong and fearless and not afraid to take risks in business.
I'm proud of my body. My body weight will always be something I'll struggle with for the rest of my life, but I'm finally in a good place and learning to love me for me, and not somebody else's standards.
Keep away from people who try to belittle your ambitions. Never allow anyone to take YOUR spirit away from you.
My father raised us like … we were not allowed to see people in any sort of colors, but also we were not allowed to call people fat. If ever we were to say, ‘Oh that fat person, or this person,’ he would make us put a bar of soap in our mouth and count to 10. We weren’t allowed to look at people like that.
It just sucks when you’ve given so much and you realize it still wasn't good enough for someone.
I just find it crazy what people will critique you on, and you have to take it with a grain of salt. I could be curing cancer, and I would be shunned for it. I mean, that's just the truth. People are crazy, but I like to say for every hater I have 100 people that love me and they think it's motivational, so I try to focus on that. But it's sometimes hard, you know?
Political confusion starts with terminology confusion.
All I want to be is human and American and have all the same rights and I will shut up.
It seems to me that we learn the most not when we look for a certain answer, but when we allow questions to naturally guide us to an outocme, often an outcome that we have not planned or predicted. My goal. . . is to live the questions.
I really have to feel a sense of freedom in my storytelling.
