I think the most important thing for me in a relationship is honesty.

If you really want your hair to look good, just don’t wash it for a day. That’s my secret.

My advice to teens is to try and do something that scares you every day because it’s the only way you can test how far you can really go.

One time I went into a restroom and a girl followed me in.

I think if you’re fame-hungry, go out to a nightclub and get drunk… why do that?

Don’t get me wrong – I’ve gone to a club. But I’d much rather be with my close friends at home or a concert, or on a trip. I’ll go dancing with my grandma. She likes to cut a rug!

I guess I did have my young love. I did everything to impress her. Everything possible. It was just ridiculous.

My dogs are crazy. They’re always getting into some kind of trouble but then again, they’re my most loyal friends.

I notice people that look good.

You can’t describe the feeling of being in love – when you meet someone who makes you a better person.

Great advice comes from people that have been around a lot longer than you.

It’s weird, but I don’t feel like think I deserve any of the attention. There’s really nothing but one audition for a Disney Channel movie that separates me from 2,000 other brown-haired, blue-eyed guys in L.A., you know?

We used to fight all the time but now that I don’t see him very often I cherish the time I have with him.

High School Musical has been a blessing and a gift.

I can draw really well. And I like to paint. I’m a bit of an artist.

It’s hard to see someone with a ‘perfect’ body and be like, ‘Why can’t I be like her?’ But that person was born to be who she is, and you’re born to be who you are.

We work in the dark — we do what we can — we give what we have.

Those who best know human nature will acknowledge most fully what a strength light hearted nonsense give to a hard working man

Everybody loves to show up at the party once all the hard work is done.

I never knew anybody . . . who found life simple. I think a life or a time looks simple when you leave out the details.

I am a black diamond, unfaceted. Black diamonds are rare, hard to cut, and therefore uncommercial.

When you’re a writer, you hear your internal critic, and that’s really hard to get over. And then sometimes you hear critiques from classmates and stuff.

It’s hard to enjoy practical jokes when your whole life feels like one.
