“Love has nothing to do with what you are expecting to get — only what you are expecting to give — which is everything. What you will receive in return varies. But it really has no connection with what you give. You give because you love and cannot help giving.”

Loved people are loving people.

Life can be wildly tragic at times, and I’ve had my share. But whatever happens to you, you have to keep a slightly comic attitude. In the final analysis, you have got not to forget to laugh.

I don’t believe in marriage. It’s bloody impractical. ‘To love, honor, and obey.’ If it weren’t, you wouldn’t have to sign a contract.

He’s worked his entire life and he’s never lived a single moment, I mean not a moment, in the real world.

If you want to sacrifice the admiration of many men for the criticism of one, go ahead, get married.

You can’t change the music of your soul.

Without discipline, there’s no life at all.

The woman’s position in the world today is so much harder than a man’s that it makes me choke every time I hear a man complain about anything.

Dressing up is a bore. At a certain age, you decorate yourself to attract the opposite sex, and at a certain age, I did that. But I’m past that age.

Only when a woman decides not to have children, can a woman live like a man. That’s what I’ve done.

Enemies are so stimulating.

Sometimes I wonder if men and women really suit each other. Perhaps they should live next door and just visit now and then.

We are more closely connected to the invisible than to the visible.

I’ve always loved music and felt connected to it, but was too afraid to explore that avenue.

I don’t need to be famous. I’m not that ambitious. At this point, if I’m not sucked in, I’m never going to get sucked in. Being the so-called hot girl, I disconnect from that. It’s not that deep.

We can all be conned but at what point do we realize that we’re being conned and to what point do we allow ourselves to be conned?

I loved my baby dolls when I was a kid. I used to pray with them and say good night to each and every one of them because I didn’t want their feelings to get hurt. I remember having that connection with my baby dolls.

What makes me most happy is connecting with others. I love meeting new people, being social, and engaging in empowering discussions.

I want to speak for people that may not feel like they’re being spoken for at the moment. And I want to make a connection between the world around us and the charts.

Much of our anxiety and stress comes when we’re focused on fear and disconnected from the voice of our inner guide.
