“I feel very adventurous. There are so many doors to be opened, and I’m not afraid to look behind them.”

I don’t entirely approve of some of the things I have done, or am, or have been. But I’m me. God knows, I’m me.

If it is not to make the world better what is money for?

The ups and downs, the problems and stress, along with all the happiness, have given me optimism and hope because I am living proof of survival.

I’ve always sung in the shower. Now I make the stage a mental shower in order not to get too uptight and enjoy it.

I hate the idea of always having to interpret other people’s ideas and thoughts and words, because I’m very independent and, I guess, a free thinker.

I’m not like anyone. I’m me.

I’m not afraid. Life is just such an adventure to me.

It’s all about hope, kindness and a connection with one another.

The public library is more than a repository of books. It’s a mysterious, wondrous place with the power to change lives.

I don’t like my voice. I don’t like the way I look. I don’t like the way I move. I don’t like the way I act. I mean, period. So, you know, I don’t like myself.

It is strange that the years teach us patience; that the shorter our time, the greater our capacity for waiting.

I think I ended up being the scarlet woman partly because of my rather puritannical upbringing and beliefs. I always chose to think I was in love and that love was synonymous with marriage.

I know I’m vulgar, but would you have me any other way?

I call upon you to draw from the depths of your being – to prove that we are a human race, to prove that our love outweighs our need to hate, that our compassion is more compelling than our need to blame.

I believe in mind over matter and doing anything you set your mind on.

My mother says I didn’t open my eyes for eight days after I was born, but when I did, the first thing I saw was an engagement ring. I was hooked.

Without question, you have been the greatest adventure of my life.

Hurricanes and airplanes, we fly higher than the end of time.

The mountains are calling and I will go.

I’m not going anywhere. I hope. It’s been an adventure. We took some casualties over the years. Things got broken. Things got lost. But I wouldn’t have missed it for the world.

I knew when I met you an adventure was going to happen.

I’ve spent a lot of my life being lost but aren’t those the best adventures?

I’ve got a wandering heart that yearns for the people and places I haven’t met yet.

Run. Run as fast as you can it doesn’t matter where as long as you feel the wind against your skin. As long as you leave everything safe behind you and don’t look back.
