“If you're trying to live life, really live it, you should, in my opinion, try to expand all the aspects of your life.

Your real job in the world is to be you. Comparing yourself to other people I think that hurt me more than anything. Allowing myself to go there so much in my head hurt me.”
“We all enjoy being comfy, but my comfy - you know, I love a nice, cozy cashmere sweater and spandex, sure.”
