“I believe we are powerful but we don’t use our minds to full capacity. Your mind is powerful enough to help you attain whatever you want.”

Never rush an emotion; everything in life has a rhythm, it is the pauses and silences that speak the truth.

A star can never die. It just turns into a smile and melts back into the cosmic music, the dance of life.

The happiness and the joy that I see in the eyes of the children. They saved my life so I want to, give it back. I’m not joking.

Damned indecision and cursed pride.

I’m a strong person. I’m a warrior and I know what is inside of me.

You can always dream, and your dreams can come true. But you have to make them come true.

May we continue to remember not to judge man by the color of his skin, but the content of his character.

Be humble, believe in yourself, and have the love of the world in your heart.

Let us dream of tomorrow where we can truly love from the soul, and know love as the ultimate truth at the heart of all creation.

Hope is such a beautiful word, but it often seems very fragile. Life is still being needlessly hurt and destroyed.

No matter what you do, give it everything you have. Be the best, not the second best.

I love to read. I wish I could advise more people to read. There’s a whole other world in books.

We hold ourselves back in ways both big and small, by lacking self-confidence, by not raising our hands, and by pulling back when we should be leaning in.

The beauty of the living world I was trying to save has always been uppermost in my mind – that, and anger at the senseless, brutish things that were being done. . . . Now I can believe I have at least helped a little.

I wish I could just go tell all the young women I work with, all these fabulous women, ‘Believe in yourself and negotiate for yourself. Own your own success.’ I wish I could tell that to my daughter. But it’s not that simple.

To be successful, you only need one person to believe!

You have to believe in yourself when no one else does.
