“Once I realized that the only thing I can actually control in this life is my own mind, how I choose to react, feel, and perceive, I felt immediately liberated.”

If I ever find myself overwhelmed, it’s only because I am overwhelmed by how much more I want to learn. That is what drives me.

I have always been a very passionate person. Some people are born with this fire burning inside to “do,” or create, with an insatiable hunger for knowledge and experience, and I am no exception.

Some of the greatest moments in life come from moments that are incomplete.

The degradation of our environment is undeniably a direct result of our lack of regard, lack of accountability, and lack of responsibility.

My love for animals started before I can remember.

I have friends come over and we read plays out loud and I make paintings and I just do things all the time just so I don’t ever feel like I’m sitting around.

I’ve done a lot of independent travelling, which hasn’t been the best career choice, but it’s been a really great life choice.

I think we are all overcoming tiny obstacles every second of every day even if that means just a small shift in perspective.

Animals don’t have a voice, so I think it is our job to give them one.

I enjoy feeling physically strong, so maybe I’d like to be able to lift a building and launch it at someone.

What we do to animals, we do to ourselves.

I have nobody. I have surrounded myself with people who are fake just because I need to talk to somebody.

I think it’s time we take a step back and recognize that while we are hurting our animals, we are hurting each other, and we are hurting our planet.

We have such an amazing future ahead of us.

The frenzy of the little-girl culture is something very unique, and I can only say that because I was one. The obsession – I can’t really explain it. Everything is heightened to the maximum.

Reusing and recycling our materials is the most important thing we can do.

When you are with your friends, control your tongue.

We have the power to control what we spread.

No one can touch words but words touch everyone. Our choices of words decide most of the situations we are dealing with, they have an immense power to influence and control life. 

You cannot always control what goes on outside. But you can always control what goes on inside.

The highest possible stage in moral culture is when we recognize that we ought to control our thoughts.

Don’t be like a TV reacting to somebody else’s fingers on the remote control. Decide yourself when you want to be happy or sad or whatever.

An expectation is a hidden agenda with control at its root.

We are most impatient in the situation in which we don’t have control.
