More quotes by Elizabeth Berkley
Having gone through so many of the personal things I've gone through, its about creating an (online) space for girls to be heard. I don't profess to have all the answers. But Ask Elizabeth is a space where girls are not alone.
Elizabeth Berkley
I don't think people have seen yet what I can really do. Only appetizers!
Elizabeth Berkley
I'd love to play a rock star in a movie, but for now, I'm not performing in public.

I will say a lot of dancers do such beautiful things for their body and then they smoke a cigarette. I've never been a smoker, but I realized after taking yoga . . . in ballet you're not encouraged to do a lot of breathing. I think in a weird way, a lot of dancers find relief in actually breathing.
Elizabeth Berkley
I had to make some drastic choices to avoid losing myself.
Elizabeth Berkley
I will never forget experiencing Venice for the first time. It feels like you are transported to another time - the art, music, food and pure romance in the air is like no other place.

Girls are so often pitted against each other as enemies or adversaries. We even see it in 'Us' magazine: Who wore it better?
Elizabeth Berkley
I had to work out where I was going, what type of films I wanted to make. For that reason, I decided to choose independent productions, less important roles, and I tried theater, too.
Elizabeth Berkley
I love to sing. Mostly about love and sex.
Elizabeth Berkley
We're not excusing the ones who are mean, but I want girls to understand the psychology. It's not in everyone. But the bully needs to put this pain somewhere.
Elizabeth Berkley
No one goes unscathed, we all go through things. We just can't let people's nasty words become our beliefs about ourselves, you know?
Elizabeth Berkley
I was raised really, really healthy, pretty much vegetarian and a very clean lifestyle, I don't smoke, I don't drink. I'm more addicted to the things that make me feel good - endorphins after working out.
Elizabeth Berkley
No movie influenced me more to go after my dreams than 'Flashdance.' After seeing it, I took 15 dance lessons a week. I cut all my sweatshirts. I did the 'Maniac' thing.
Elizabeth Berkley
My mission is to give girls the tools to be able to blossom into their best selves.
Elizabeth Berkley
Everyone just talks about the problems our teenage girls are facing and what they're dealing with. But there was, to me, a void in how they were being served or helped. I thought, 'Wow, I'd love to create something.
Elizabeth Berkley
I think often times when people choose to be part of a charity it's usually because something is very personal.
Elizabeth Berkley
I noticed that no matter where I went in the country, there was this group of questions that got asked. I would track them and keep them in categories. Like body image, school, family, friendship, you name it, the emotional life of a teenage girl.
Elizabeth Berkley
I needed to find my own worth and shake the image after having done 'Showgirls' at age 21.
Elizabeth Berkley
I just love creating an environment where people can open up and say what's on their mind and in their heart.
Elizabeth Berkley
Ask Elizabeth is a community of voices, it's not me standing on a podium telling people how to run their lives, it's girls helping each other sharing their wisdom and advice and I create a space for them to do it.
