- [ observation 2021] Going from trans rights to gay rights to people of colour's rights to all of it, I'm here for all of it, however they need it. As I'm meeting more ad more people, my only intention is to bring love, kindness and support after this frickin' that we just went through.
- I love putting women in power, and I hate to play second fiddle to another actor. But I love that more projects are showing women as these strong, intelligent, superhuman beings.
- I got into acting to showcase characters that people can see in themselves or that can help them get through something... It's amazing that somebody could see this as a kid and think, 'Wow, there's a Mexican-American congressman in this film, and I'm a young Mexican-American kid, and I want to get into politics.'
- Since I did my first film for Netflix [The Kissing Booth 2], I realized that for my mental health, I knew I had to have a public presence, but that didn't mean I always had to engage with the public.
