Falling in love. Being in love. It's something I dream of, something I want to feel.

I want to help transgender individuals who might be struggling realize that they have to love themselves and stay true to who they are because if they keep moving forward, and keep a positive attitude, then things will get better.

A lot of people - boys - look at me differently. They think that if they date me, they are gay because they are dating another boy. In instances like this, I feel almost excluded, if that's the right word. I feel like I'm being put on a different shelf.

Let's face it: your average straight, cis-gender teenage boy isn't going to pursue a relationship with a trans-girl.

I feel really honored to be part of The #seetherealme campaign. It's really amazing, as it helps many teen girls who are struggling. It helps them to find themselves and be true to who they are.

Being transgender is more than just medical books and everything, procedures. It's something spiritual in which you're finding yourself and really discovering who you are and learning to love yourself.

I think I've been able to find happiness, and I've learned to love myself. That's a huge accomplishment for anyone, learning to love yourself.

I'm open, and I'm out there, but I also enjoy being alone, relaxing.

Being transgender is not just a medical transition.

Being transgender isn't a medical transition. It's a process of learning to love yourself for who you are.

I think that a lot of people don't understand how much discrimination transgender people actually face. They think that we're just kind of saying it to put it out there and get sympathy, but that's not true at all.

I love to smile, even through pain.

It's important to believe in yourself and the beauty of your dreams and to not let anyone tell you different.

Being competitive is in my nature. I actually think being competitive saved my life. It's given me the constant drive to be better, and when I was in that hospital bed and that wheelchair, it made me want to get better.

The big thing for me is just continuing to be a beacon of hope. And showing people that nothing is impossible.

ESPN truly is a game changer and has the ability to unite the world through sports, which is something I'm incredibly passionate about.

I thought my sports career was over once I got into a wheelchair. That was the hardest reality I had to face.

It's actually more work for me to not smile than to smile.

Who doesn't like to get dressed up and eat good food?

Just like Steve did, Bindi's got that strange communication with wildlife. It's beautiful to watch, and it instills an empathy with all of us about just how important the animal kingdom is.

If you can reach out and touch and love and be with wildlife, you will forever be changed, and you will want to make the world a better place.

Grief is never something you get over. You don't wake up one morning and say, 'I've conquered that; now I'm moving on.' It's something that walks beside you every day. And if you can learn how to manage it and honour the person that you miss, you can take something that is incredibly sad and have some form of positivity.

My future is about the joy of loving those around me, of being with the people who are still here and not just mourning my loss.

Your grief path is yours alone, and no one else can walk it, and no one else can understand it.

Steve had a broad, easy smile and the biggest hands I had ever seen. I could tell by his stature and stride that he was accustomed to hard work.

Working with people, the musical part is one thing but the personal part is totally different and just as critical. If the friendship is there and it's a lasting friendship, then it will take care of itself.

'Mistresses' is about the lives of four women, each going through different versions of infidelity. Their longtime friendship is what gets them through extremely challenging times.

I really wasn't even aware that Batman and Superman had this kind of grudging friendship.

I think it's one of those funny things - sometimes you're not really friends with somebody until you've gotten into a good fight, and I think that's the situation with Superman and Batman.

Although the troops have struck us, we throw it all behind and are glad to meet you in peace and friendship.

We want to take good tidings home to our people, that they may sleep in peace.

Love yourself. It is important to stay positive because beauty comes from the inside out.

Being rich and famous has never been my goal at all. I love to act and I want to be able to do really great parts.

My goal is to be able to provide for myself and not have to worry about the daily expenses. I do want to be able to benefit from my work and make a good living, but I love it so much that I would do it for free.

I do want to be able to benefit from my work and make a good living, but I love it so much that I would do it for free.

I worked in theater my whole life. My mom was a drama teacher at my middle school. In high school, I was Drama Club President every year, and then I auditioned for conservatory acting programs.

Success is a journey, not a destination. The doing is often more important than the outcome.

One important key to success is self-confidence. An important key to self-confidence is preparation.

From what we get, we can make a living; what we give, however, makes a life.

Start where you are. Use what you have. Do what you can.

You learn about equality in history and civics, but you find out life is not really like that.

We must believe in the power of education. We must respect just laws. We must love ourselves, our old and or young, our women as well as our men.

When we were together, I loved you deeply and you gave me so much happiness I can never repay you.

The ideal attitude is to be physically loose and mentally tight.

If I were to say, 'God, why me?' about the bad things, then I should have said, 'God, why me?' about the good things that happened in my life.

I have always drawn strength from being close to home.

Trust has to be earned, and should come only after the passage of time.

I have tried to keep on with my striving because this is the only hope I have of ever achieving anything worthwhile and lasting.

There is a syndrome in sports called 'paralysis by analysis.'

Ray Bradbury is, for many reasons, the most influential writer in my life. Throughout our long friendship, Ray supplied not only his terrific stories but a grand model of what a writer could be, should be, and yet rarely is: brilliant and charming and accessible, willing to tolerate and to teach, happy to inspire but also to be inspired.
