“Becoming yourself is really hard and confusing, and it’s a process. It’s often not cool to be the person who puts themselves out there.”

There’s nothing interesting about looking perfect.

I want to be a Renaissance Woman. I want to paint, and I want to write, and I want to act, and I just want to do everything.

I don’t want other people to decide who I am. I want to decide that for myself.

If we stop defining each other by what we are not and start defining ourselves by what we are, we can all be freer.

Focused with precision, it can become a powerful source of energy serving progress and change.

The human race is like a bird and it needs both wings to be able to fly.

Don’t let anyone tell you what you can and can’t do or achieve. Do what you want to do and be who you want to be.

The difficulty for me is that I’m interested in so many different things.

I think women are scared of feeling powerful and strong and brave sometimes.

I always keep cards people send me. I have a whole wall covered with them.

Gender equality, historically has been predominantly a women’s movement for women.

I’m a multidimensional person and that’s the freedom of fashion: that you’re able to reinvent yourself through how you dress and how you cut your hair or whatever.

It’s not the absence of fear. It’s overcoming it. Sometimes you’ve got to blast through and have faith.

Feeling beautiful has nothing to do with what you look like, I promise.

What gets scary is when your self-worth is tied up in what strangers think of you.

As a child I grew up with a school curriculum that totally glossed over British colonialism and British slavery.

I never said most of the things I said. Then again, I might have said ’em, but you never know.

You have to systematically create confusion, it sets creativity free. Everything that is contradictory creates life

I try to stay in a constant state of confusion just because of the expression it leaves on my face.

Myths are fun, as long as you don’t confuse them with the truth.

Life is like a confused teacher. First she gives the test and then teaches the lesson.

We confuse money with actual wealth.

Confusion is a luxury which only the very, very young can possibly afford and you are not that young anymore.

I’m not lost for I know where I am. But however, where I am may be lost.
