Tasha Smith quotes:

I always found myself trying to cover the mental anguish and the torment and the abuse that I was dealing with. That made me always question my beauty, my intelligence, and a lot of other things about myself.

I've opened up my school in California in a beautiful facility on Ventura Boulevard. I'm always in heaven when I'm doing my classes.

Creativity inspires me.

Humanity inspires me, people inspire me, I've always been a people person, and I love people.

I love actors, and I'm passionate about the creative process of acting and filmmaking.

I remember working on a show, and feeling so insecure about whether I looked attractive enough to do a love scene. It was weird because I couldn't understand why I wasn't feeling beautiful, even though I knew I was.

My excitement about my life and my future makes me happy, because I am a dreamer, and I always dream, no matter how many obstacles are in my way.

You could drop me off in the middle of a sea of people, and I'm happy.

I am just discovering my fashion side. I have never felt anchored when it comes to fashion.

I felt like I was literally losing myself as being the joyful, spiritual, passionate, exciting woman that I naturally had been.

I love to hear stories about people who got to places where they are today. Those kinds of things are very interesting to me.

My dreams, my desires, and my goals make me smile.

That's just part of the blessing of being an actor: you get to learn so many things about life.

We're used to seeing fantasy explored from a male perspective, and the way men might see sex, have sex, want sex and even be addicted to sex. But I don't think women pursuing that sexuality within themselves is something that's talked about or experienced as often.
