“Beauty, for me, has become about loving different faces. I feel like we are now in the most obsessive time of all, trying to look like the same doll clone. It’s weird for us all to want to look like one person. So many different men are hot and sexy and interesting. We think a big nose on a man is character, and wrinkles distinguished, and we show them in high definition on magazine covers. And with women we just photoshop them all.”
The fact that I can wake up every day and know that I am who I always wanted to be – that makes me incredibly happy. It might sound kind of cheesy, but I think it’s honestly what’s on the inside that makes you beautiful.”
“Here’s the thing with relationships that nobody tells you: You’re not going to find one person where everything is always going to be perfect – that’s bull. You have to agree to disagree. You have to work at a relationship, and you have to agree to disagree. You have to find someone who is willing to work out the kinks with you and with them. Communication is everything; it’s the only thing. If your communication game is strong, you can get through the tough stuff. But if it’s not, the littlest thing can bring the relationship down.”
“I’ve messed up a lot and learned lessons. I’m not perfect. I’m human. I make mistakes. I try my best to be a good person for myself, the kids who watch our show and the people who give me my job. But I’m just myself.”
“I used to be so concerned about someone disliking me or what people were saying about me on the Internet. It’s ridiculous to worry about that. You should be focusing on family and the wonderful things you have in your life. My favorite quote is one that Jennifer Stone put on Twitter: ‘Great minds discuss ideas. Average minds discuss events. And small minds discuss people.'”
