“I thought I was the luckiest girl in the world. I had tremendous hope in me.”

I don’t want expensive gifts; I don’t want to be bought. I have everything I want. I just want someone to be there for me, to make me feel safe and secure.

You have so much pain inside yourself that you try & hurt yourself on the outside because you want help.

I adore him I have never been so happy. I have real love.

I am all about caring. I have always been like that.

Don’t call me an icon. I’m just a mother trying to help.

Princess Diana was a wonderful, caring philanthropist. She would come sometimes into the church and sit at the back and pray.

A mother’s arms are more comforting than anyone else’s.

It’s vital that the monarchy keeps in touch with the people. It’s what I try and do.

It has always been my concern to touch people with leprosy, trying to show in a simple action that they are not reviled, nor are we repulsed.

If you find someone you love in your life, then hang on to that love.

I am always going to be true to myself.

I live for my sons. I would be lost without them.

I don’t go by the rule book. I lead from the heart, not the head.

I found myself being more and more involved with people who were rejected by society – with drug addicts, alcoholism, battered this, battered that – and I found an affinity there.

Whoever is in the distress can call me. I will come running wherever they are.

As always, a million heartfelt thanks for bringing such joy into this chick’s life.

Every girl and every boy that’s born alive is either a little liberal or else a little conservative.

One girl’s trash is another girl’s vintage red carpet dress.

I’m a bit of a tomboy, but then a girly girl. And I feel like you can be both.

Join the union, girls, and together say Equal Pay for Equal Work.

I am an independent girl. I always put my work first in my priority.

It only takes a second to call a girl fat and She’ll take a lifetime trying to starve herself – think before you act.

I’ve become skeptical of the unwritten rule that just because a boy and girl appear in the same feature, a romance must ensue.

Grit and lipstick, two things you should never leave home without!
