“I don't really talk about surgery, because I feel like no one should b...” — Candis Cayne Quote

I don't really talk about surgery, because I feel like no one should be judged on their journey.

There have been actresses who transitioned and nobody knew. But for me, with everybody knowing my history, it will be harder. I'm sure there are some great scripts calling for an ultra-glamorous woman. And I'm prepared to be ultra-glamorous.

I consider myself true, which, I know, some people look at as radical, but I enjoy the normalcies of life. I'm not out there trying to transform things, but somehow, by being easy to talk to, and easy to look at, and on a mainstream TV show, I think that I'm helping the public's opinions about transgendered people to change, slowly.

In the first couple of years when you're transitioning you don't really fit into any gender, because you're changing over. You have to start getting electrolysis before you even start your therapy. But I think all the weird looks help to give you conviction in who you really are.

It is very satisfying to see people praising you and your character, and the journey of the character moved them. It gives you a lot of confidence as an actor.

For this is the journey that men and women make, to find themselves. If they fail in this, it doesn't matter much else what they find.

We're all pilgrims on the same journey - but some pilgrims have better road maps.

I'm pleased with my life, with the journey.

Even if you set a long-term goal, that doesn't mean it's a straight-line journey. Often, there are problems and obstacles along the way.
