When I am in a relationship, I give it my 100 per cent. But then, if it doesn't work, you cannot help it. You cannot move ahead with something which isn't working.

When you have to go away from someone you love or vice-versa, whatever the reason, it really shatters your life.

All I knew growing up was that my father was married to and loved my momma, period. He worked hard, made some money, and put it on the dresser. She spent it on the family, and he went out and earned some more. He taught me the most about love.

It was always a dream as I was growing up. I would watch movies, mostly American movies, and be so engrossed in those stories, all I wanted to do was be there. I wanted to be part of that romance or that fantasy or be that warrior or that struggling soul who finally makes it good.
