“I have suffered from bullying in many ways, from bullying in school due to my disability in reading, to digital abuse that I deal with on a daily basis. I’d like to tell the kids that are being bullied that no one should have to deal with the abuse, ever!”

If someone is trying to bring you down, it only means you’re above them.

I was never a dancer before ‘Shake It Up’.

Don’t try to impress people. Always be yourself!

I’d like to help other kids with dyslexia, because I’m dyslexic. It was very hard, and I know that what I went through, other kids are going through.

I don’t have to try to be perfect because I know that my fans like me for who I am. They like me because I am weird and kind of funky, but still really calm.

I’m really into tall boots. I just got some new ones from Michael Kors that have these little gold studs. I have Valentino ones that I really love. Real, real tall boots!

I really love big scarves. I have a whole bunch.

I know that some girls look up to me for certain things, like dyslexia, and that way I know that they like me for me, so it adds no pressure.

I think that everybody needs somebody to really look up to and know that even though you’re going through a tough time, you’ll get over it.

My father is Cuban. Spanish was my first language, but I don’t speak it that much anymore because I had dyslexia, and in school they work with you only in English. But I’m proud to be Latina, and most people don’t know I am.

Dancing inspires my music. Having your girlfriends all together and just being free and happy.

My dream artist to play at prom would be Frank Ocean. “Thinking of You” is one of my favorite songs. He makes really sweet music for slow dancing at the prom.

I never saw myself as a singer; I never really thought I had the voice for it.

I believe that anyone can become better,if you put in the effort.

My dad would call me his Cuban princess because I had really dark olive skin because I was always in the sun; but I don’t really go in the sun anymore, so that is why I am so white.

To me, being Latin is about more than your looks – it’s how you’re brought up.

I think I’ve learnt a lot about bullying and how to deal with bullying and how to get over that and to just be yourself and forget the haters.

I get a kick out of being an outsider constantly. It allows me to be creative.

We speak for the entire Giants organization when we say that there is no place in society for hatred and bullying against anyone.

Psychopaths know intellectually what is immoral they just don’t have a feeling of immorality about it.

It doesn’t prove anything except that you’re bullying us. Which, as I recall, is a sign of cowardice.

Everyone who wants to do good to the human race always ends in universal bullying.

The flagrantly gay Quentin Crisp dealt with homophobic bullying by refusing to bow to its onslaught. His number listed in the phone directory, he responded to derogatory remarks accompanied with a stated intent to kill him by asking, “Would you like to make an appointment?”

Courage is fire, and bullying is smoke.
