“Don’t call me an icon. I’m just a mother trying to help.”

I’m much closer to the people at the bottom than the people at the top, and the latter won’t forgive me for it.

Being constantly in the public eye gives me a special responsibility, particularly that of using the impact of photographs to transmit a message, to sensitize the word to an important cause, to defend certain values.

It’s not sissy to show your feeling.

I thought I was the luckiest girl in the world. I had tremendous hope in me.

The people that I care about are the people out there on the street. I can identify with them.

Hugs can do great amounts of good – especially for children.

There’s no better way to dismantle a personality than to isolate it.

They say it is better to be poor and happy than rich and miserable, but how about a compromise like moderately rich and just moody?

Life is just a journey.

I work on instinct. It’s my best adviser.

I’m a free spirit – unfortunately for some.

If men had to have babies, they would only ever have one each.

Nothing brings me more happiness than trying to help the most vulnerable people in society. It is a goal and an essential part of my life – a kind of destiny. Whoever is in distress can call on me. I will come running wherever they are.

Family is the most important thing in the world.

It is a weakness that I lead from my heart, and not my head?

When you are happy you can forgive a great deal.

May God our Lord never let me harm anyone when I cannot help him!

Any society begins by realizing that together, by helping each other, you can survive better than if you fight each other and compete with each other.

Part of the reason my friends and I became successful is that we were always helping each other.

We learn martial arts as helping weakness. You never fight for people to get hurt. You’re always helping people.

We have to do what we can to help wherever and whenever it is possible for us to help.

Most of the time, I’m not even working; I’m just helping people, because I feel that I am too lucky.

Help other people to cope with their problems, and your own will be easier to cope with.

The uplift of a fearless heart will help us over barriers.
