I consider myself a woman endowed with inner beauty.
It sounds corny, but I've promised my inner child that never again will I ever abandon myself for anything or anyone else again.
You really have to look inside yourself and find your own inner strength, and say, 'I'm proud of what I am and who I am, and I'm just going to be myself.'
I was almost giving up because the chemo was so intense and aggressive that there were moments I had to find the inner strength within myself.
Of course I like to watch myself bat. After every innings, match, series, I do watch my own videos whenever I get the time.
Richard Childress and myself have made some important innovations on our cars.
Apple has long been a leading innovator of mobile technology; I myself own an iPhone.
I am very proud to align myself with Miken - a brand known as an innovator and leader in the development of high performance sports equipment.
I might be deceiving myself but I do not think that I do have an inordinate fear of death.
I want a world without war, a world without insanity. I want to see people do well. I don't even think it's as much as what I want for myself. It's more what I want for the people around me. That's what I want.
I was so intrigued by insects and things that crawled or flew - I could spend hours by myself in a vacant lot.
There are times I felt insecure or not sure: I'm unsure of myself, or I get nervous, but nerves are good. I try and embrace all those things. I try and embrace the times where I'm not sure of myself or I'm like, 'Is this going to work? Is this going to land?'
I'm not an insecure person, per se, but I just never saw myself as the girl who walks into a place and everybody goes, 'Wow.'
I was so nervous because I was doing my first film. I didn't want to embarrass myself. I'm an incredibly insecure person, and knowing that I had to go on set in next to nothing, it scared me, but at the same time, I knew it would be a challenge to open me up, not only as an actress but as a person.
I think my securities far outweigh my insecurities. I am not nearly as afraid of myself and my imagination as I used to be.
Any time you write history, you insert your opinion. You pick and choose what you are going to write about. I feel really happy not inserting myself. I spend too much of my life inserting myself. It's just great to let other people carry the narrative.
I myself downloaded and watched 'The Wire,' 'Breaking Bad,' 'Downton Abbey,' 'Mad Men' and 'The Walking Dead' on my iPad while walking on a treadmill. I never turned a TV on once. I never inserted a DVD.
As a filmmaker, I always try not to concern myself with the outcome of things. I make the movie, and I do that as honestly and good as I can. I don't want to pollute my thoughts with what is going to happen with it afterwards, because I have to work inside-out.
If I find myself just not feeling like writing songs anymore, I think I'll drop it. There's enough bad, insincere music out there. I don't need to contribute to that.
I respect myself and insist upon it from everybody. And because I do it, I then respect everybody, too.
