If we don't start acknowledging our correct position as nothing more than a part of the planet as opposed to this perception that we're superior, then we won't have it much longer. We're facing a very turbulent, war-torn, drought-ridden existence for future generations unless we act now.
I think we learn some of the greatest lessons in life from animals, whether it's love, suffering, or the value of silence.
For the most part, I try to stay away from high fructose corn syrup and citric acid.
I don't know if I'm supposed to say this, but probably not... I was a really cynical child.
I have a long-standing relationship with Autism Speaks. I've been supporting them for many, many years now.
I kind of went through a rough period. I could have kept going down that road and then off the cliff and into the ocean.
I play characters that are pretty; I play characters that are sort of intimidating and confident, but that doesn't necessarily mean that I'm that.
My dad designed houses and was an architect for many years.
My mom and I built a guest house on my property so that my mom could help me fostering animals. I do multiple fosters a month.
My mom and I would make bracelets and necklaces, and I would sell it in the first, second, and third grades because that was my lunch money.
Parents are in denial a lot of the time - everybody knows what they did as a teenager, but somehow, when they grow up, it all disappears.
I feel like human beings cover up their scent with all these different things and products. I feel like we've given up our ability to engage with people because we don't know how people smell anymore.
I still have very normal insecurities, but I've always been made to feel like a body is a body, and it's not supposed to look like what you see in the media.
I think for women especially, writing and creating your own role, producing, directing - having some control over what you do is really important. We can pave the way for other women to send what messages they want sent.
