“I was putting so much time and energy into just my work, but I was raised to believe that family comes first.”

I can hide, and my husband’s just terrible at finding me. I do like to jump out from behind doors and scare him.

Guys are kind of retarded until they’re about 30.

I’m not really a first-move kind of gal.

I’m a talker. I love a good debate.

A lot of children don’t find forever homes because they’re on that special-needs list, even if it’s because of something as simple as her mother smoked cigarettes for a month, not knowing she was pregnant.

It’s easy to be taken advantage of if you’re not honest.

I’m not perfect. But clothes help. A good bra with some underwire definitely helps a lot!

I want to stay in the moment and enjoy the great things that are happening.

I’m not terribly sentimental.

Of course, of course I’m grateful. How can I not be grateful? I have been afforded such a wonderful life.

I think that I always loved being the centre of attention!

I always assume I look better than I actually do. I’ll feel pretty good about myself when I leave the house, then I’ll see a picture and think, ‘Crap, I had no idea that’s what I was looking like.’

I spent so many years just saying what I felt without thinking about the ramifications, without understanding that I have this opinion but not everyone might share that opinion and now they don’t like me because of it.

I just ultimately wanted to be a mother. I love children.

I have my moments, but generally speaking I shy away from being too lovey dovey.

I definitely want to go out and explore different personalities and different people.

No one believed [the 1986 amnesty for illegal aliens] was tough enough on illegal immigration, and it didn’t give enough flexibility on future legal immigration.

Not believing in anything is also a religion .

You have to stand for what you believe in and sometimes you have to stand alone.

He said – I am going to give you so many good things. I said – I believe you.

Don’t you believe true love can heal a broken heart?

There’s a monumental difference in believing in God and believing God.

People are influenced most by those they trust, admire and believe care for them.

I believe how I act today will affect how I am tomorrow.
