"No, not me.."
"Thank you, Jesus?"
"Yes, Toph, Jesus died for your Christmas fun.”

“Thanks! Ever since I was a little kid, I wanted this! You don't know… my brother sitting there, he says "Thank God we don't have to listen to anymore… you can do it now!" My mom's home, everyone's watching… I have to thank the people at Paramount; I have to thank Jerry Zucker for taking the time he took before he decided to use me because he was sure it was for me… I have to thank Patrick Swazye… he was a stand up guy and went to them and said "I wanna do it with her"… I wanna thank Demi… I wanna thank everybody who makes movies… I come from New York; as a kid, I lived in the projects and you're the people I watched… you're the people that made me wanna be an actor… I'm so proud to be here, I'm proud to be an actor and I'm gonna keep on acting, and thank you so much!”

Coming Out Speech (2014)
Context: There are too many kids out there suffering from bullying, rejection, or simply being mistreated because of who they are. Too many dropouts. Too much abuse. Too many homeless. Too many suicides. You can change that and you are changing it. But you never needed me to tell you that. That’s why this was a little bit weird. The only thing I can really say is what I’ve been building up to for the past five minutes. Thank you. Thank for inspiring me. Thank you for giving me hope, and please keep changing the world for people like me. Happy Valentine’s Day. I love you.
