Born on March 3rd

"I'd really love to get back into commercials, actually. I love how quick and breezy they are. And honestly, they pay really well."

"I'm the daughter of two Indian immigrant doctors, and I have an older sister and younger brother, and none of us have pursued medicine as a career. We're all over the artistic side of things."

"My mom always knew I was going to be an actor because I was a ham from the very beginning, so she would push me toward it, which is really unconventional for Indian families to do."

"Every sitcom needs their straight man or straight woman."

"In the field of wisdom & life, the path to true wisdom begins when we question the certainties we have carried since childhood."

"Wisdom is the quiet space we cultivate between our thoughts, where clarity finally speaks. As a philosopher & thinker, this is the foundational truth I have observed."

"We seek truth not to change the world around us, but to clarify the lens through which we view it."

"Whether you listen to a piece of music, or a poem, or look at a picture or a jug, or a piece of sculpture, what matters about it is not what it has in common with others of its kind, but what is singularly its own."

"Can a moment of madness make up for an age of consent?"

"Always carry a corkscrew and the wine shall provide itself."

"The mystic purchases a moment of exhilaration with a lifetime of confusion; and the confusion is infectious and destructive. It is confusing and destructive to try and explain anything in terms of anything else, poetry in terms of psychology."

"To appreciate present conditions, collate them with those of antiquity."

"The whole point of music is being able to share your story. I've been songwriting for a long time, usually while on the road, as a way to get my feelings out."

"I think everybody can relate to loving somebody and them bringing out a wild side in you."

"I love elephants! It's my favorite animal."

"Because I'm a good girl, I tend to fall for the bad boy persona, and it ends up biting me in the butt. They end up not knowing how to treat me, and I end up completely devastated."

"I love love. I'm, like, obsessed with it."

"I like to know that when I'm 90 years old, I'm going to be able to look at a song or poem I wrote and say, 'Wow! I remember I was so crazy about this person,' or 'I remember what that day felt like.'"

"It's been so difficult to watch people criticize me and my intentions."

"I've always written songs that were confessional, acoustic, wordy - my writing style matches my personality. The music always has to match the mouth it comes out of."

"Fifth Harmony as a group represents more confidence, more girl power, more unity. They're anthems, as opposed to confessional songwriting about one person's life when there are five individual women."

"I think songwriting was the biggest way that I found my identity."

"A lot of the music I write is about love. Sometimes I won't understand how I am feeling until I write a song about it."

"For me, I've learned if I want a very stable, normal relationship, where I'll be like, 'Okay, this is nice, I know what's going to happen in a month,' it's probably better to date outside the industry. But you can't help who you fall for. It's our dating pool."

"I like Noah from 'The Notebook.' One - hundred percent. I fall in love with him so hard."

"Obviously any band, any group, someday is not going to be together anymore. That's the truth."

"Any song I do, I put my heart and soul into and, as an artist, you can only hope it makes other people feel the way you feel when making it."

"I've had writing sessions with people, but I've never had one where you're just there, and you start making a song, and then it's too good to be true that something really cool will come out of this."

"Now and forevermore, I'm going to stick up for immigrants, and I'm going to stick up for Hispanic people and their rights. I feel like that's just my job."

"There's definitely been times where there's stuff that I have not been comfortable with, and I've had to put my foot down."
