“I think following my instinct has proven to lead me in the right direction, and it’s hard to hear sometimes, because it’s a noisy world and there’s a lot of people talking to you.”

I’d rather believe in my own choice and see it all go wrong than do something I’m not fully convinced of and later feel guilty about it.

I’m a very caring person.

I feel more like I’m a person who has so much to offer in different capacities that it would be a danger for me not to give myself a chance to spread my wings in all different directions.

All women are NATURALLY, bad ass!

Quiet moments recharge me.

I think we deserve people who really, really love us.

Love will come find you, just to remind you of who you are.

Even if your family isn’t quite there for you, find the people that support you and hang on to those people and try to let go of those that try to take you down.

I’m not ashamed of what I am and that I have curves and that I’m thick. I like my body.

But when I first fell in love with the piano, I knew it was me. I was dying to play.

I think there’s an energy about just remaining excited. Like, you can’t be excited when you’re not doing something new.

I think there was something about being in a tough environment that gave me a certain drive.

Your life can become the background for the art you create.

I think that marriage is beautiful. And if it’s a partnership with someone you love, then it really is beautiful. Yeah, I think that marriage does work.

If you treat me fairly, I’ll give you all my goods.

My life is rich because I have those kinds of people in my life.

Poetry is just the evidence of life. If your life is burning well, poetry is just the ash.

For it is evident that those who regard the whole earth as their future territory will stress the organ of domestic violence and will rule conquered territory with police methods and personnel rather than with the army.

Take nothing on its looks; take everything on evidence. There’s no better rule.

The way of science is paved with discarded theories that were once declared self-evident.

It has been said that man is a rational animal. All my life I have been searching for evidence that could support this.

The most savage controversies are those about matters as to which there is no good evidence either way.

A wise man apportions his beliefs to the evidence.

By far the best proof is experience.
