“The older I get, the more impressed I am with women. I have yet to meet a woman who is not strong. They don’t exist.”

Women never cease to impress and inspire me.

The secret to feeling attractive, and to being attractive, is the confidence that comes from knowing who you are and what you believe in.

What’s important to me is to share, and being inspired, and inspiring.

Aging is out of your control. How you handle it, though, is in your hands.

Don’t let any of your good habits get boring.

Taste is acquired. You may have to unlearn a taste for chocolate or ice cream.

You can learn a lot from my mistakes more than my success.

Be proud of yourself. Try to eat well…and when you cheat, enjoy it!

Do less but do better. Get back to yoga. Remember that stress is not progress.

It’s not about going to a party. It’s life as a party.

Feel like a woman, wear a dress!

When I was young, I lived like an old woman, and when I got old, I had to live like a young person.

We all have a Wonder Woman inside us.

Now is the time to become a myth.

Silence, nothing is better.

You’re always with yourself, so you might as well enjoy the company.

The men and women who are truly filled with light are those who have gazed deeply into the darkness of their own imperfect existence.

No business which depends for existence on paying less than living wages to its workers has any right to continue in this country… By living wages I mean more than a bare subsistence level – I mean the wages of decent living.

You made my non-existent perfect fall apart and unfold gently in the arms of your pure acceptance. Imperfections that became alive, then anything that’s ever been known as beautiful.

Simply existing is not your only option. You can choose to intentionally live.

We know that equality of individual ability has never existed and never will, but we do insist that equality of opportunity still must be sought.

I don’t like the idea of the black race being diluted out of existence. I like the idea of all of us being here.

The inner light actually comes from the soul; it is already inside us. The moment we can have free access to our soul, we will see that this light is coming to the fore to permeate our whole outer existence.

Everywhere the need exists for maternal sympathy and help.
