I'm glad if I can help anybody.

I'm getting to use my platform as the Bachelorette - on my season - to really make change through my experience.

I think every time you go through a difficult relationship, you realize more and more about what you will and you won't have in your next relationship - what you deserve and what you don't deserve.

I am so supportive of the guys I met on my 'Bachelorette' journey and wish them well. And I'm so glad for the support that some of the guys do show me.

There are some times where being on the shows are great. Sometimes it's hard, when it's just like, 'the show must go on,' and there's a TV show that's being done.

I don't know how to date other than on a TV show with 30 guys at one time. I really don't.

Life in L.A. has been amazing. It's been really hard, it's been eventful. It's a lot of what ifs and maybes and being hopeful.

I have been in love with somebody in my past who lied to me, who cheated on me, and I tried to make it work. But I'm not that girl anymore, and that's been something I've been so proud of.

I have the biggest sweet tooth of anybody.

My journey on 'The Bachelor' was interesting. I definitely grew but had ups and downs.

You don't compete in something if that's not your goal, you should always want to succeed.

I do love country music. And a real musician.

Going from 'The Bachelorette' to being on 'Dancing with the Stars,' I'm having to work through some things.

Everything that I said that I feel like I want, deserve, the type of respect that I want from a man, I still believe that. I still am going to hold those standards for any man in my life.

There are always going to be people who don't understand or want to say something negative. But ultimately I try to put my focus on the people who have been supportive and loving and encouraging throughout my journey.

Sometimes, yeah, I wish I would have protected my heart a little more, absolutely.

I can't pretend that I'm happy or pretend to get emotional when I'm not.

I feel like a lot of people that have been in similar situations as I have, reality TV stars, you can make a packaged version of yourself if you want to - I just don't work that way. I can't do it.

I live my life by certain standards.

I have been told that I misrepresent being a Christian. And that has been soul-crushing.

We've got to change the language of how women speak to women and how men speak to women and how we shame them for the decisions that we make.

I try to eat healthy when I can, but no one can take my candy away from my bedside! I always keep it there for a treat when I wake up!

I want to keep my options open and make sure I'm doing the best thing for Hannah.

My family has been really supportive of me and is really happy. They made me who I am and so they trust me and love me and ultimately want me to have love too.
