I feel as a culture we are ready to look at the truth and address it head on. I think it’s the power of how connected we all are with the digital revolution – there’s no where you can go without seeing the truth. Although it’s upsetting because we can’t believe at this day and age at this time it’s still that blatantly injustice in the world. I think it’s very empowering to do something about it and that’s the reason why I create the We Are Here movement out of my frustration about the apathy in society.

I feel like….Music is the – it’s the answer. It’s the reason.

We think – or maybe we’re shown – that the only way to express ourselves is through that very sexy energy. I think there’s more than that which shows our power. For me, I sometimes feel the most sexy when I’m totally covered head to toe.

One thing a lot of people don’t know about me is that I’m a driver… I love driving.. I’m driven.

Only a woman can breathe under the water of life defying gravity and staying zen while doing it.

Everything I do stems from something personal, not just because it will look good on paper or be a tax write-off.

Tao in the world is like a river flowing home to the sea.

Why is the tao so valuable? Because it is everywhere, and everyone can use it. This is why those who seek will find.

I have too much respect for the idea of God to make it responsible for such an absurd world.

The fact that more people have been slaughtered in the name of religion than any other single reason. That, that my friends, that is true perversion!

The voice of the Lord is the voice of common sense, which is shared by all that is.

I respect faith, but doubt is what gets you an education.

Your talent is God’s gift to you. What you do with it is your gift back to God.

It is during our darkest moments that we must focus to see the light.

I believe in everything until it’s disproved. So I believe in fairies, the myths, dragons. It all exists, even if it’s in your mind. Who’s to say that dreams and nightmares aren’t as real as the here and now? Reality leaves a lot to the imagination.

God is the same everywhere.

What is a soul? It’s like electricity – we don’t really know what it is, but it’s a force that can light a room.

Nothing ever exists entirely alone. Everything is in relation to everything else.

A man who is good enough to go to heaven is not good enough to be a clergyman.

No sinner is ever saved after the first twenty minutes of a sermon.

Only one thing is impossible for God: To find any sense in any copyright law on the planet.
