It's absolutely amazing. I just can't believe it.
I don't know who this quote is by but the friends that you can call at 3am are the ones that really count and I am lucky that I have a few of those. So, I just drew on that and the people who believe in me as they lift you up. It's really important to have people around you that do that.
Harry Potter's like Santa Clause: something you can't see but wish was real so badly that you end up believing in it.
I really believe that you have to earn things. I don't feel comfortable unless I have worked really hard.
I've found that if ultimately, if you truly pour your heart into what you believe in, even if it makes you vulnerable, amazing things can and will happen.
Feminism is not here to dictate to you. It’s not prescriptive, it’s not dogmatic. All we are here to do is give you a choice. If you want to run for President, you can. If you don’t, that’s wonderful, too. I’m lucky I was raised to believe that my opinion at the dinner table was valuable. My mum and I spoke as loudly as my brothers.
I truly, truly believe that beauty is something that comes from within.

Believe in yourself and go for it
I'm not obsessed with books, I'm not obsessed with school and homework, and I'm not obsessed with not getting into trouble.
If I went to somewhere busy, I wouldn't last very long. I can't go to a museum - I'll last 10 or 15 minutes in a museum. The problem is that when one person asks for a photograph, then someone sees a flash goes off, then everyone else sort of... it's sort of like a domino effect.
Alfonso put a lot of trust in us and it was so nice that he really wanted to hear what we had to say and what we thought, but Mike kind of took it to a new level, ... In a way, I think, I'd be doing something really difficult and I'd just say, 'I can't get this right. Just tell me what you want me to do. Just tell me how you want this to be, I'm going crazy.' And he'd just say, 'I can't tell you how to do it. I'm not going to tell you how to do it.'
