“I’m born to be a father. And I’ve been looking forward to this all my life.”

Does it depress you? To know just how alone you really are?

I’m not a big fan of western movies and I really don’t like cowboy-indian movies. I have never watched them.

You see, in their last moments people show you who they really are.

My mom and my dad never pushed me into performing. They never prohibited me from trying anything, or being anything. They never restricted me in any way. For which I’ll be forever grateful.

I’m kind of addicted to moving.

I am not a public speaker and never will be.

I didn’t want to raise my child in Hollywood.

I’m in control of my life, not anyone in Hollywood.

There’s nothing like working with your mates – it’s the way it should be, as far as I’m concerned.

I think your personal evolution runs hand in hand with your professional evolution. Performance and the person you are kind of grow simultaneously.

If you make decisions based upon people’s reactions or judgments then you make really boring choices.

Don’t let anyone ever make you feel you don’t deserve what you want.

Anyone that has a job that takes them away from home, I think, can understand the difficulties in maintaining consistency, not only with your family and those you love but with your friends.

People are fond of using the its not what you know, its who you know adage as an excuse for inaction, as if all successful people are born with powerful friends. Nonsense.

Other men’s pains are easily borne.

Folks, I’m telling you, birthing is hard and dying is mean- so get yourself a little loving in between.

I was born in a lovely white house with a garden.

Whence come I and whither go I? That is the great unfathomable question, the same for every one of us. Science has no answer to it.

The things that are important to me – being a mother, a businesswoman, an activist – are all things that were borne out of great passion.

I have learned that champions aren’t just born; champions can be made when they embrace and commit to life-changing positive habits.

Spiritual life doesn’t make you a good person; you ARE a good person, you are a holy being when you are born. What spiritual life does is remind us that this is who we really are.
