“You can’t appreciate the good times without the bad ones.”

I love musicals and I’m happy they are coming back because I’d love to do more.

Power’s not given to you. You have to take it.

We all have our imperfections. But I’m human, and you know, it’s important to concentrate on other qualities besides outer beauty.

Being pregnant was very much like falling in love. You are so open. You are so overjoyed. There’s no words that can express having a baby growing inside of you so, of course, you want to scream it out and tell everyone.

Love is so blind, it feels right when it’s wrong.

The reality is, sometimes, you lose. And you’re never too good to lose. And you’re never too big to lose. You’re never too smart to lose.

Love is something that never goes out of style.

Everyone’s not good at everything, it’s ok to depend on someone.

My mother taught me the principles of hard work, setting my own goals and visualizing my future.

I need to find a catchy new word for feminism, right? Like bootylicious.

The most alluring thing a woman can have is confidence.

I went to a high school for the performing arts and I lived and breathed music. It kept me focused; it kept me sane.

Attention is a strange sort of being, anyway, the idea of attention if someone appreciates your work. It’s always nice that someone appreciates your work.

As we express our gratitude, we must never forget that the highest appreciation is not to utter words, but to live by them.

I was angry and frustrated until I started my own family and my first child was born. Until then I didn’t really appreciate life the way I should have, but fortunately I woke up.

We appreciate yesterday, but we’re looking for a better tomorrow.

The two hardest tests on the spiritual road are the patience to wait for the right moment and the courage not to be disappointed with what we encounter.

Too much of a good thing can be wonderful!

Trade your expectations for appreciation and the world changes for you.

Men and women balance each other out, and we have to get to a point where we are comfortable with appreciating each other.
