I felt I should have been taught about the landmine problem. It made me suddenly realize certain things about the world and how much I had to learn, like the history of the people.
I approached UNHCR because I believe in what the United Nations. I believe refugees are the most vulnerable people in the world. They are affected by everything, including landmines. They are vulnerable to everything.
I wanna better understand the world I live in, and I wanna be able to learn how to be more effective. I wanna learn and I wanna listen.
I have so much in my life. I want to be of value to the world.
I just started to see the world as it really is and it completely shocked me and changed my opinion on everything.. on life and my values and certainly my own sense of self.
I've started to really become aware of the world we live in, what's really going on.
Progress is slow, it is uneven, it is fragile and in some parts of the world it is being erased.
If you don't get out of the box you've been raised in, you won't understand how much bigger the world is.
Arabs and Mulims are not terrorists.The world should unite against Israel.
We will never get it under control if we are selective about who gets to survive.

Breast cancer alone kills some 458,000 people each year, according to the World Health Organization, mainly in low- and middle-income countries. It has got to be a priority to ensure that more women can access gene testing and lifesaving preventive treatment, whatever their means and background, wherever they live.
I usually try to look for something I haven't done before, a side of me that I haven't completely explored. There's a truth in acting, and there is a very real part of me that can understand that or can believe in that or can see the beauty of that or see the ugliness in that and the statement that needs to be made. So it's all kind of me.
Everybody went crazy when I went shopping alone at Harrods the other day. I was like; what the hell? Nothing has changed in my life and nothing is going to and I think that's a choice you make.
