Jean-Jacques Rousseau

Patience is bitter, but its fruit is sweet.

Heroes are not known by the loftiness of their carriage; the greatest braggarts are generally the merest cowards.

Whoever blushes is already guilty; true innocence is ashamed of nothing.

I hate the bad rap that people give my parents. Because they are just parents, really, at the end of the day trying to stand up for their daughter and themselves.

I don't want to get into autobiographies; I don't want to talk about myself.

Another thing that freaks me out is time. Time is like a book. You have a beginning, a middle and an end. It's just a cycle.
