“I have a woman’s instinct and it’s always a good one.”

I’ve got what my mother’s got – however bloody you are feeling you can put on the most amazing show of happiness.

I do things differently, because I don’t go by a rule book, because I lead from the heart, not the head, and albeit that’s got me into trouble in my work, I understand that.

Everyone of us needs to show how much we care for each other and, in the process, care for ourselves.

I knew what my job was; it was to go out and meet the people and love them.

I am not a political figure, nor do I want to be one; but I come with my heart.

Only do what your heart tells you.

Anywhere I see suffering, that is where I want to be, doing what I can.

The kindness and affection from the public have carried me through some of the most difficult periods, and always your love and affection have eased the journey.

I remember when I used to sit on hospital beds and hold peoples hands, people used to be shocked because they d never seen this before. To me it was quite normal.

I’d like people to think of me as someone who cares about them.

I will fight for my children on any level so they can reach their potential as human beings and in their public duties.

The press is ferocious. It forgives nothing, it only hunts for mistakes. In my position anyone sane would have left a long time ago.

What must it be like for a little boy to read that daddy never loved mummy?

I’m aware that people I have loved and have died and are in the spirit world looking after me.

No one sat me down with a piece of paper and said, This is what is expected of you. But I’m lucky enough in the fact that I have found my role. I love being with people.

Being a princess isn’t all it’s cracked up to be.

When you have a strong vision to accomplish your dreams, the goodness starts moving through you.

A woman’s greatest glory is to be little talked about by men, whether for good or ill.

Self-actualized people are independent of the good opinion of others.

So long as we live among men, let us cherish humanity.

Here people was once used to be honourable: now they are all bad; they have kept one goodness: that they are greatest boozers.

I’m only as good as my last word, my last hook, my last bridge.

Trust that something good is up ahead.

Gratitude can shift your perspective, elevate your mood, and contribute to your goodness.
