“There’s one golden rule to keep before you: laugh about everything and don’t bother yourself about the others!”

As long as this exists, this sunshine and this cloudless sky, and as long as I can enjoy it, how can I be sad?

I want friends, not admirers. People who respect me for my character and my deeds, not my flattering smile.

I love the time I spend with you. You make my living worth-while. Why dint I meet you before. I wish I could start my life From the beginning with you because the time I spend with you is never enough. I need you more everyday.

If I read a book that impresses me, I have to take myself firmly by the hand, before I mix with other people; otherwise they would think my mind rather queer.

Those who have courage and faith shall never perish in misery.

I love you, with a love so great that it simply couldn’t keep growing inside my heart, but had to leap out and reveal itself in all its magnitude.

Whoever is happy will make others happy.

I don’t want to have lived in vain like most people. I want to be useful or bring enjoyment to all people, even those I’ve never met. I want to go on living even after my death!

Don’t be too assuming, it doesn’t get you anywhere.

Misfortunes never come singly.

Think of all the beauty still left around you and be happy.

I don’t think of all the misery, but of the beauty that still remains.

People can tell you to keep your mouth shut, but that doesn’t stop you from having your own opinion.

I feel more of a person than a child, I feel quite indepedent of anyone.

People can so easily be tempted by slackness and by money.

I know what I want, I have a goal, an opinion, I have a religion and love. Let me be myself and then I am satisfied. I know that I’m a woman, a woman with inward strength and plenty of courage.

The basketball court for me, during a game, is the most peaceful place I can imagine. On the basketball court, I worry about nothing. When I’m out there, no one can bother me.

It doesn’t bother me at all. Do I hold any hard feelings? Not at all, Life is too short to sit around and hold grudges.

Don’t bother doing something unless you’re radically different from the competition.

When I turned 60, it didn’t bother me at all.

People with opinions just go around bothering one another.

Don’t bother about being modern. Unfortunately it is the one thing that, whatever you do, you cannot avoid.

The secret of being miserable is to have leisure to bother about whether you are happy or not.

The distortion of the truth bothers me.
