“You’re stronger, and you’re better, and you’re ready for whatever.”

Moments are so fleeting; I want to hold on to the good ones.

If we took the time to learn more about different places and people, perhaps we would have more empathy for each other.

We have the potential to help people out of poverty, out of disease, out of slavery and out of conflict. Too often we turn the other way because we think there’s nothing we can do.

Maturity and experience are part of my liberation.

Through the shake of an earthquake I will never fall. That’s how strong my love is.

The smaller you strip things down, the more you depend on the songs and yourself, as opposed to arrangements.

I really like to live my life in a low-key fashion.

I feel the presence of a higher power. I believe that what you give is what you get. It’s universal law. I believe in the power of prayer and of words. I’ve learned that when you predict that negative things will happen, they do.

There was no other path for me. I knew this was my path. I had to follow it.

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.

I often see only my mistakes. I always feel I could have done better. Every artist goes through it.

Competitive spirit is still at a premium. The more you win, the better you play, the more money you make, so they all have that in mind.

My sisters like cooking at my place. It has a bit more room, and the food tastes a little bit better. A big pot of spaghetti and sauce, some warm French bread – works all the time. I think I’ve been eating pasta for 26 years.

Hot heads do not give good feedback – choose a better time.

Learn the wisdom of compromise. it’s better to bend a little, rather than break relations forever.

I’m sorry never made it better. I just let it suffice.

It’s better to focus on one film rather than take up two or three films at the same time.

Don’t worry when someone found faults in your job. Because often, faults are found in the place where there is much more betterment than others.
