Growing up without my parents by my side is a weight I still carry today.

I think despite what we've seen on TV, people like seeing women and knowing about women's stories and their struggles and their truth. I think we've seen it in a lot of these shows - when there's a cast of all women, it does very well.

When I've been asked in the past about my dream role, I always expressed how much I'd like to be a superhero.

Once I started advancing in my career, I stopped wanting to hide from my reality.

If I can procure three hundred good substantial names of persons, or bodies, or institutions, I cannot fail to do well for my family, although I must abandon my life to its success, and undergo many sad perplexities and perhaps never see again my own beloved America.

I really want to be in the final to play in front of my family and friends, but it's not only that. I came to Arsenal because I want to win trophies. So to play in the final is important.

My grandfather was born in India and three generations of my family served there.

On both sides of my family, my grandparents grew up in total poverty and came to California during the Great Depression. The only way they were able to work their way out of that was by joining the military, which is how they both went on to be able to go to college.
