"The Texas I grew up in was not insular at all, there is a certain thing that goes about Texans that says, ‘Go, out, use your passport, go travel all around the world, go see other places, go as a Texan, go venture out there.’ You know, the rugged individual. It wasn’t insular in that way, like a lot of places in the South might be and are."
"I love Los Angeles and would never want to leave, but I'm so happy to be from Texas," she said. "It makes you a different person. I feel more rooted. In L.A., anything goes."
"I'm terrified of what I would have become if I'd stayed there. I'm sure I’d have two children by now. I love the people, and I’m glad I grew up there. It’s because of [my mom] that I can do things on my own."
"I'm always going to live in Texas. Texas is my home - it'll be my home forever."
"I grew up in a very nice house in Houston, went to private school all my life and I've never even been to the 'hood. Not that there's anything wrong with the 'hood."
