"In regards to fashion, according to me, everyone should have their own style. One should take fashion to mean comfort such that if any one sees them they can say that the person has taste and is well versed with fashion. One can even wear slippers and pull off a style.Therefore, fashion should be one’s own. Another thing is that fashion is all about knowing yourself, as in your body shape and colour."

"In this country, not so many people are not lucky enough to have inherited property from their parents. I believe, that what such people, like me should pursue to inherit, is educational knowledge. That has always been my motivation to complete my studies because even when I have a career, education will always be a tool to move with the fast growing world."

"I don’t know what my daughter wants to be. She might want to live a private life and posting photos of her will mean disrespecting her decision. If she wants publicity like her parents have I’m very sure, she will get as many followers as possible. Although my daughter is too young I can tell she is humble and who knows what she will be in future."

"“I had always wanted a baby girl and that is what God gave me. I can’t explain the joy that I had upon realizing that I was going to have a girl. It was a dream come true"

"It is no longer rumour, the long love journey that singer Knowless Butera and music Producer Clement Ishimwe have shared has finally paid off."

"Clement is incredibly talented. He is remarkably gifted. Truly exceptional—not just because we’re related. Twenty years is a great reflection of where music came from, where it is now, and the unnoticed talents behind it all."

"The kids and I love you more than words or even life itself can explain."

"Miss Shanel and Miss Jojo were trailblazers in the Rwandan music scene, paving the way for many of us who came after them."

"There's always more to write."

"Across the continent many activists are doing incredible work, and there were many before us and the climate strikes in 2018. When the focus is just on one person it erases other experiences and stories. The solution is not to put faces on the climate movement, it has millions of people who are doing incredible work and organizing in their communities."

"It’s people and stories like this we really need to listen to."

"Having dominion over the Earth is about responsibility and service to the planet and its people, because God is not a God of waste and exploitation."

"I’ve always said that climate change is more than statistics, it’s more than weather, but in Turkana I really got to understand those words."

"We can only better take care of the planet when we are also doing well. As we advocate and fight for climate justice, it’s really important that young people really prioritize their mental health and their own self care, to find out, what is self care to them?"

"My advice would be that, even as we do activism, we prioritize ourselves, we prioritize our lives, we prioritize our mental health, because the very planet that we are fighting for will need us to exist as well."

"There are people who are looking for answers to a question that needs to be answered through much needed reparations and responsibility from the global north."

"Africa is on the frontlines of the climate crisis but it’s not on the front pages of the world’s newspapers. Every activist who speaks out is telling a story about themselves and their community, but if they are ignored, the world will not know what’s really happening, what solutions are working. The erasure of our voices is literally the erasure of our histories and what people hold dear to their lives."

"It hasn’t rained for two years. To experience what that means in a community, to see how much people are suffering and how much help they need, I really got to see how the climate crisis is affecting so many lives and destroying so many livelihoods, and that it’s mostly women and children who are suffering the most."

"I initially thought with the Logan Paul fight that would knock him (KSI) out in the first round so, I honestly do not know, I can only hope because that would be amazing to see a knockout in the first round. But by the third round maybe someone can get downed and it is going to be f****** Gib because you’re going f****** down."

"When production does continue again imagine that the workplace will be very different in order to create a safer place in regards to protecting the crew and talent from exposure to such viruses again. There has been talk of adding a coronavirus test along with our regular STD tests to our testing panel which we are mandated to do every 14 days. I personally am curious to see how the future of porn will change with how greatly the world has been impacted by the coronavirus."

"Coronavirus has had a huge impact worldwide affect almost every business including the adult industry. From commercial sex workers such as dominatrix to more mainstream pornography, we too have been affected greatly. Since our work includes being up close and extremely personal with our co-workers, production has been shut down. Leading to a loss of work for not only the actors/actresses but also directors, production crew and make up artists."

"They got me into it more. I have some friends who do some betting on the UFC and stuff like that but I’ve never gone to a fight before."

"I use my Twitter to sell content and make money. A lot of the times you won’t see me posting about my dog because I do try to stay on brand. I understand why the common person who follows me on social media would put me in a very hyper sexual category. They’re looking at my job. They’re looking at Riley Reid. I want to attract people who will hopefully understand this is just my brand, but sadly we’re not in a world of intellectuals. I think a lot of people don’t look deeper; so many people are just surface-lookers. It’s an emotional thing. I struggle with it when it comes to making friends or dating but I also try to meet people in real life, which is also sometimes a battle because people meet me though Riley Reid."

"Being a big star in the industry, knowing that I have an impact on the industry, it was almost a duty. To take on this challenge and do this documentary, to really show the adult entertainer is more than just her stage name."

"I’m at a point in my career where I really want to humanize myself and allow the world to see there’s more to me than my adult videos. I want to show them my raw self, myself without makeup, myself when I’m just rambling and talking. And maybe I shouldn’t have said the things I say but I fucking said it because that’s who I am."

"Not being egotistical but I know I’m a big name and I know that I’m recognizable. For the people who know who I am to be walking around in Times Square and be stopped in their tracks and be like, ‘Wait a minute, is that Riley Reid on a giant billboard in Times Square? What?’ And then for the people who don’t know who I am, they’ll see it and probably be like, ‘Oh, what is this? What’s going on here?’ And then hopefully do their research, look into it because they’ll be curious, and then see that it’s an adult story documentary porno all mixed together. I think it’s going to be huge for the general public. I hope we have more opportunities like this. I hope other companies will take the time to glamorize themselves in the mainstream media, because if it can be done it should be done."

"I can say I understand his effort and desires trying to make the city seem more family-friendly. I one hundred percent understand those perspectives and everything like that, but sex is how we were all created. Sex is the root of technology and everything that happens in our world. Vogue and everybody else, they all use nude female bodies. They use sex constantly to sell products. So I want to say [to Giuliani]: I’m sorry that you felt the desire to somewhat banish us from the city life but we have only begun to fight back. We will be back in that city. I don’t see why we shouldn’t be glamorized in that same light. We all watch it, we’re all part of it, we all need sex to create life, so why not just glorify it?"

"I might hit up the male performer of the year and we might have a little party tonight."

"That was very spontaneous. I was like, Well, here it goes."

"It’s super-flattering and I would be super-happy if I won. Winning an award will help me feel like I am the best at what I do."

"Never have I ever had a boyfriend who was proud of my job. I’ve had two ‘normal’ boyfriends in my adult life, normal being they don’t do porn. Both of which ended in an ultimatum, porn or them. I always chose porn. I’ve struggled with that choice though, wondering if I’ve made the right decision."

"I know that myself personally, I don’t recommend anyone to get into porn because it’s really tough and it’s really hard and I feel like you really have to have a strong mindset and perspective.You have to have a lot of self-love because there’s so much hate coming at you. People are just clawing at you so you have to really be confident in who you are before you open the doors to allow people who have no idea who you are, who have never met you, know nothing about you, who literally just watched you have sex, then judge you and complain about you."
