“Stay triumphant, keep on living. Stay on your toes, get off the ropes. Don’t let ’em ever count you out.”

After every storm, if you look hard enough, a rainbow appears.

No stress, no fights. I’m leaving it all behind. No tears, no time to cry. Just making the most of life.

I really rebel against authority.

Never listen to anybody who try to discourage you.

You really just want to know that somebody loves you for you. Sometimes you feel like an ATM machine with a wig on it.

I’m experimenting with my voice. Every day I do different things with it, and if I feel it’s appropriate I do it on the record.

It’s kinda like being on a roller coaster. If you don’t get on the ride, you won’t experience the adventure.

There’s an answer, if you reach into your soul, and the sorrow that you know will melt away.

Suffered from alienation,carried the weight on my own,had to be so strong,so I believed,and now I know I’ve succeeded,in finding the place I conceived.

I hope to be around past the 90’s. I don’t want to just be categorized as one of this era. My goal is to have a career that stands.

I do not think I reinvent myself. Wearing my hair differently or changing my style of dress is playing dress-up. I don’t take it too seriously.

Standing alone,eager to just believe,it’s good enough to be what you really are,but in your heart,uncertainty forever lies,and you’ll always be,somewhere on the outside.

You really have to look inside yourself to find your inner strength.

There’s a hero if you look inside your heart. You don’t have to be afraid of what you are.

I work myself into the ground. But I think I’m a nice friend and a good person, and I try to do my work as best I can.

Pregnancy was probably the best and the hardest thing I’ll ever go through. I know for a lot of women, it can be wonderful and relatively easy.

Every family needs to have one person they can count on when everything falls apart.

Every drop in the ocean counts.

What one does is what counts. Not what one had the intention of doing.

I don’t care what you play, where you’re from, who you produce. It depends on what you’re doing when you’re with me. That’s what counts. I don’t pre-judge anything or anybody.

Every vote must and will be counted.

A smile is the same as sunshine; it banishes winter from the human countenance.

Quit counting time and start making time count.

What counts in making a happy marriage is not so much how compatible you are but how you deal with incompatibility.
