“Working, for me, is like a gift.”

I actually have a punching bag right outside in my garden.

I don’t celebrate really crazy.

Singing is something I love to do. I feel very confident doing it.

I’m really small, so I think if I shrink, I’d turn into a puddle.

I had best friends who were in the industry, and I’m like, it’s cool if you get a job, and I’m happy.

I’m keeping the pixie. I hope I inspire people, it’s really cool to have short hair.

It makes so much sense to just love what you do and go to work every day to get to get to work.

I don’t actually watch ‘Grey’s Anatomy.’ When I was in it, I kind of knew that it was a big deal. My sister’s a big fan, so I kind of knew.

I’m cool with people dressing up as Eleven for Halloween. I definitely want to open my door and give them candy.

It was really fun to play a period piece because I’ve never done that before and it’s completely different.

Orcas are my spirit animal. That’s my favorite mammal.

At the end of the day, I just do my job. I love my art.

I don’t care what I look like; it’s how people think of me. And I do care how people think of me. I want people to say, ‘Oh, she’s nice,’ rather than, ‘Oh, she’s so pretty.’

I write many essays on whales. I love whales, especially orcas. And dolphins.

I sort of knew I was a bit of a drama queen. I always threw tantrums, so I knew I wasn’t a normal child.

I never liked sleeping in the dark. I have, like, twinkle stars around my bed, so it’s not so bad.

For my birthday I got a humidifier and a de-humidifier. I put them in the same room and let them fight it out.

Giving is the greatest gift.

Every human being was born with an inherent gift, and that gift is their gift to humanity; they are supposed to serve humanity in the area of their gifting.

The world is awaiting your gift – all you have to do is show up with the right intention!

If you have kids who are struggling with dyslexia, the greatest gift you can give them is the sense that nothing is unattainable. With dyslexia comes a very great gift, which is the way that your mind can think creatively.

No matter how many people celebrate your gifts, don’t ever think that you are more important to them than your gift is to them. This is why many people fail: They fail because they think that people came to follow them.

No one came to earth empty; everybody came with a contribution to make to their generation. Most of them never find that gift and even more die never releasing it.

One of the greatest gifts science has brought to the world is continuing elimination of the supernatural.
