About This Quote

We all want to be known and we all want to be loved. But we can only be the things we want to be when we’re in the right moment. You don’t know when that is going to happen, but that’s when you “open all the doors in your head" and "open all the pores in your body." And then when you get there, you’re like “Yes, I am shining! I am a star!”
