I found I could say things with color and shapes that I couldn't say any other way - things I had no words for.

For a long time I thought I could deal with my anger and hostility on my own. But I couldn't. I denied that it had affected me and yet I was so frantic on the inside with other people: I needed to be constantly reassured.

I don't think I could play a character that I couldn't relate to somehow. I'm not unfamiliar with frustration anger shame helplessness and a load of other emotions that make up our psycho-soup. I try to focus on that frustration that sense of unfairness and multiply it.

I got a phone call from Fearne Cotton. It was amazing! I literally couldn't believe it. It was so cool. It was the night before I was going on her show to sing on the 'Live Lounge.' She was so lovely.

Turns out I couldn't catch them - or even get close to them. I realized that sharks are amazing beautiful animals who have absolutely no interest in checking me out.

I have amazing people around me. I couldn't be in a better place. I'm grateful for my life and where I'm at. I never thought I could be in the position that I'm in.

I loved hip-hop. The first stuff I heard was Public Enemy and I couldn't believe it. It was amazing and I've always loved hip-hop.

I thought I was dreaming. It was the most amazing moment of my entire life. Not only is Bill the love of my life but he's also my best friend. I couldn't believe my dream guy was asking me to marry him!

For a while I couldn't leave the house by myself. Even if I was just grocery shopping alone I'd get self-conscious.

I talked about the barriers created by monopolies. I said that it was the role of government to break up these monopolies and that we couldn't do it alone.

I couldn't even go to the bathroom alone. My mother or a social worker always went with me.

I once had a boyfriend who couldn't write unless he was wearing a necktie and a dress shirt which I thought was really weird because this was a long time ago and no one I knew ever wore dress shirts let alone neckties it was like he was a grown-up reenacter or something.

I'm asked all the time in interviews about who I am and I know a few people my age who have a strong sense of self but I couldn't say I know myself and sum it up and give it to you in a little package. I don't know myself at all yet.
