“Credibility is to be good. You must be good. That’s all I ever wanted – to be good at what I did.”

Don’t buy into the idea that women aren’t strong enough to do anything they want on their own.

You’ve probably noticed already that I’m dressed like a grown-up… I apologize to the Academy, and I promise that I will never do it again.

Everyone’s got to have a dream. It’s not reaching your dream that counts. It’s going toward them.

Yes, it’s a man’s world, but that’s all right because they’re making a total mess of it. We’re chipping away at their control, taking the parts we want. Some women think it’s a difficult task, but it’s not.

There are lots of things that I’d like to be, and nice just doesn’t seem good enough.

It doesn’t always turn out. It’s not always a happy ending when sometimes you say things that you think, and it goes against the grain of the larger group.

I can trust my friends… these people force me to examine myself, encourage me to grow.

My mother once said “If you don’t pay attention to age, then it won’t pay attention to you.” And she says it, and it sounds nice, but I don’t buy it.

I am the girl who everyone said was never going anywhere. I guess I shocked a few people.

You can’t just sit around and watch life pass you by. You have to keep dreaming. Sonny taught me that, and I intend to do him proud.

I’ve been screaming at the top of my lungs at my family, ‘Work out! Work out! Old age is coming!’

Words are like weapons; they wound sometimes.

I’ve had so many rebirths, I should come with my own midwife by now.

The truth is that in my job, becoming old and becoming extinct are one and the same thing.

When you stop trying to find the right man and start becoming the right woman, the right man will find his way to you.

Donald Trump can’t come up with a hairstyle that looks human, how can he come up with a plan to defeat ISIS.

However good or bad you feel about your relationship, the person you are with at this moment is the “right” person, because he or she is the mirror of who you are inside.

The only joy in the world is to begin. It is good to be alive because living is beginning, always, every moment.

I always think I don’t do the first one good, so I try to do it more.

We can all do good deeds, but very few of us can think good thoughts.

Everyone is flailing through this life without an owner’s manual, with whatever modicum of grace and good humor we can manage.

There is nothing wrong with having a good job, there is nothing wrong with having a nice house, there is nothing wrong with that. There is something wrong when that is your goal.

Put the memories away keep them safe especially the good (they cause the most pain)

Maybe the way you seem to feel safe with your arms in mine means I’m not all broken maybe there’s something good inside.
