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

When you’re playing a character in a book, there’s already a lot of pressure because all of the millions of people who have read the series have been able to envision and become very attached to the characters.

Before ‘Twilight,’ occasionally I would get the ‘Hey are you that girl from that movie?’ but no one knew my first and last name. The fans of the saga are amazing, and it’s very flattering.

I think so many young girls get caught up in the challenge of being with somebody who’s dangerous, who’s bad, who’s enticing, who’s all of those things, and you forget what it’s like to enjoy simple love.

I definitely think that females have a harder time. It’s a lot harder to be a girl because you’re always in your head. I’ve heard my brother go and take it out on the football as he says. Whereas girls would rather sit down and over think things.

I have a mother who allowed me to take in anything and everything that needed food, a bath, or a forever home, which resulted in a home that was always filled with warmth and love regardless of any other struggles we were presented with.

I think we learn some of the greatest lessons in life from animals, whether it’s love, suffering, or the value of silence.

People send everyone hate mail. That’s the way the world works right now, I’m nothing special.

With girls, friendships are hard because you have to learn to get to a maturity level to love them but not want to be them.

Having people wait outside of my house sort of gives me a panic attack. I’m a believer in the concept that people should not be followed and photographed everywhere.

I’ve always loved music and felt connected to it, but was too afraid to explore that avenue.

Young people need to vote. They need to get out there. Every vote counts. Educate yourself too. Don’t just vote. Know what you’re voting for, and stand by that.

My little brother is autistic, so I would love to be involved in a charity for autism, but I haven’t found the right one yet.

We live in a world where sort of nothing is shocking anymore.

Part of being young is making mistakes.

Drama sells more than the truth.

Jackson plays a broken guitar because he’s in love with it, and doesn’t want to fix it, I think. It’s so broken.

Have you ever felt as you had everything all the love in the world when you were completely alone and only had yourself?

When you put your preferences on the altar of your life and say: THIS. THIS is what compels me. The real you emerges.

There’s no point in being complete on the outside when you’re broken in the inside.

Being still and doing nothing are two completely different things.

Taking complete ownership of your outcomes by holding no one but yourself responsible for them is the most powerful thing you can do to drive your success.

It’s not about how much work you’re doing. It’s about what work you’re doing and how you’re doing the work.

I so desperately want my words to be indicative of how deeply and completely I love my people.

Fear is incomplete knowledge.
