“You will evolve past certain people. Let yourself.”

The right one for you will move mountains to be with you – he won’t hide behind them.

Always show kindness and love to others. Your words might be filling the empty places in someone’s heart.

We are not on this earth to just stand still & look pretty. The museums already have enough statues.

Hope for love, pray for love, wish for love, dream for love…but don’t put your life on hold waiting for love.

Even seasonal situations can bring with them lessons that last a lifetime. If the love doesn’t last, it prepares you for the one that will.

Maybe it’s NOT Maybelline. Maybe you were just born with it.

The way you treat people who are in no position to help you, further you, or benefit you reveals the true state of your heart.

Our friends have a way of reminding us of how fabulous we are when the rest of the world has forgotten.

A girl who truly knows herself is a girl that everybody else wants to know.

You will never gain anyone’s approval by begging for it. When you stand confident in your own worth, respect follows.

Be a bit of a challenge; not because you’re playing games but because you realize you’re worth the extra effort.

There is never a moment when God is not in control. Relax! He’s got you covered.

You don’t have to knock anyone off their game to win yours. It doesn’t build you up to tear others down.

There is no model, no actress, no Miss America contender that can outshine a happy, confident, secure woman.

A busy, vibrant, goal-oriented woman is so much more attractive than a woman who waits around for a man to validate her existence.

A season of loneliness and isolation is when the caterpillar gets its wings. Remember that next time you feel alone.

And in between the calm and the chaos you are evolving.

I don’t think we are here for anything. We’re just products of evolution. You can say, “Gee, your life must be pretty bleak if you don’t think there’s a purpose.” But I’m anticipating a good lunch.

Today, the theory of evolution is an accepted fact for everyone but a fundamentalist minority, whose objections are based not on reasoning but on doctrinaire adherence to religious principles.

Man’s great power of thinking, remembering, and communicating are responsible for the evolution of civilization.

If evolution was worth its salt, it should’ve evolved something better than ‘survival of the fittest.’ I think a better idea would be ‘survival of the wittiest.’ At least, that way, creatures that didn’t survive could’ve died laughing.

There is no firm reason to anticipate that the intellectual capacities of peoples geographically separated in their evolution should prove to have evolved identically. Our wanting to reserve equal powers of reason as some universal heritage of humanity will not be enough to make it so.

But nothing is more insidious than the evolution of wishes from mere fancies, and of wants from mere wishes.

You got to want to evolve. It’s something you can practice on but it just came to me. I wasn’t really sitting there like, ‘What can I do to get better?’ It just came to me, talking to my people and my crew. They just tell me what my strongest and weakest points are at.
