Quotes

  • And have the courage to accept that you’re not perfect, nothing is, and no one is — and that’s OK.
  • The road less traveled is sometimes fraught with barricades, bumps, and uncharted terrain. But it is on that road where your character is truly tested
  • The person I enjoyed interviewing the most was Elmo from Sesame Street because he is so unpredictable and he is always eating my hair and my face.
