- I feel like you can't really be truthful as an artist and empathize with the human experience, unless you know your truth and you're not living a lie. So I'm learning through it, and it's making me a better person, and it's making me a better artist, I think.
- I had dreams, but always told myself, 'Nah, that would never happen.' For a poor Latina, [acting] wasn't a reality.
- I broke down. I hid under the bed because I was afraid that somebody was going to come for me. I don't know who that someone was but I was just so scared. Not a single person at any level of government took any note of me. No one checked to see if I had a place to live or food to eat, and at 14, I found myself basically on my own.
