“Let the inner child play with you.”

You’re a fighter. You just forgot.

The worst battle is between heart and mind.

Its interesting how a change in your perspective can change everything.

The people who love you will see through the walls that you’ve built up and will love you even more.

Suffering alone is the best way to destroy yourself.

Messed up people even see the beauty in all the shitty places.

Use your voice.

We have never been so connected but still feeling so alone.

When your life standard comes down from being happy to just survive through the day.

I rather fall in love over and over again and get hurt all over again than feeling dead inside.

He reminded me of all the things I always wanted that I had just forgotten.

The things that made me feel dead, made me feel alive again.

When I love, I love hard. It almost killed me the first time.

Choosing myself, knowing I’ll be fine.

I prefer to suffer alone because then I can’t hurt anyone.

Don’t feed yourself up with personal growth tips when you are not ready for it.

I have irrational fears, and they all go back to losing my father as a kid. I’ve never gotten over it.

If American women would increase their voting turnout by ten percent, I think we would see an end to all of the budget cuts in programs benefiting women and children.

I have three kids who like Harry Potter so I was sort of aware of it. You can’t really move from it: it’s on buses, in stores, it’s everywhere. One of my kids has read the books; the other two are too small but they like the movies.

But I did go to music really early on, even when I was 4 or 5, I was responding to music probably in ways other kids were not.

I was the oldest of the children in my family. I had to do a lot of diaper-changing and lunch-making. I was taking my little sister to ballet, picking up my brother, sort of being a super-nanny.

The tyrant is a child of pride.

Take personal responsibility. A lot of people go, ‘Well, I’ll get a dog because I have a kid and a kid needs a dog.’ And it doesn’t work out for that dog and the dog is on the street.

The greatest gift you can give your children is to believe in them.
