We find ourselves in that situation where we want to believe, we want to think we're the exception, we want to think we can change someone or tame a lion or make a bad guy good or something like that but 9 times out of 10 we end up looking back going, "Oh, shame on me, should've seen that one coming!"
My friends tease me about the fact that if someone seems bad or shady or like they have a secret, I find them incredibly interesting. That's just a phase I've been in lately. I don't think this should be how i proceed in life. It's important to be self-aware about these things because you don't want to end up with that guy.
My ultimate goal is to end up being happy. Most of the time.
If you want some big revelation, since 2010 I have dated exactly two people. The fact that there are slide shows of a dozen guys that I either hugged on a red carpet or met for lunch or wrote a song with ... it's just kind of ridiculous.
I'd like to think you don't stop being creative once you get happy.
My parents taught me never to judge others based on whom they love, what color their skin is, or their religion.
I still like to live in a whimsical world that seems more romantic and fantasy-related because real life seems so hard
We don’t just live in a celebrity take-down culture; we live in a take-down culture. People will find anything about you and twist it to where it’s weird or wrong or annoying or strange or bad. You have to live your life not only in spite of people who don’t understand you - you have to have more fun than they do.
Anything you put your mind to and add your imagination into can make your life a lot better and a lot more fun.
I think I fall into the category of the hopeless romantic, and I think youdo too, because you're here...The tricky thing about us, the hopeless romantic, is when we fall in love with someone, when we say hello—and it’s magical—we never imagine that hello can turn into a goodbye. And when we kiss someone—and it’s magical—we never ever imagine that it can turn into a last kiss.
I'm the type of person, I have to study to get an A on the test.
I think who you are in school really sticks with you.
I love making new friends and I respect people for a lot of different reasons.
I've always strived to be successful, not famous.
Even if you're happy with the life you've chosen, you're still curious about the other options.
When you hear people making hateful comments, stand up to them. Point out what a waste it is to hate, and you could open their eyes.
The only way I hear gossip is if it's big enough and loud enough for my friends to bring it up to me. Or if it's, like, a big untrue ordeal from my publicist - and she hates making that phone call!
If you go too far down the rabbit hole of what people think about you, it can change everything about who you are.
I have a lot of friends who do what I do. Either they're actresses or singers or things like that.
I just kind of live a life, and I let all the gossip live somewhere else. If you go too far down the rabbit hole of what people think about you, it can change everything about who you are.
Every girl on the planet has insecurities. It helps me to know that some of the most beautiful people in the world wake up some days and don't think they're pretty. As sad as that is, it's good to know that a problem you think is your own is actually something every girl faces. Happiness and confidence are the prettiest things you can wear.
There are so many emotions that you're feeling, you can get stifled by them if you're feeling them all at once. What I try to do is take one moment - one simple, simple feeling - and expand it into three-and-a-half minutes.
The cool thing about reading is that when you read a short story or you read something that takes your mind and expands where your thoughts can go, that's powerful.
I never want to change so much that people can't recognize me.
Nothing ruins your day more than getting a bad review.
