“I didn’t know I had it in me. There’s more to all of us than we realize. Life is so much bigger, grander, higher, and wider than we allow ourselves to think. We’re capable of so much more than we allow ourselves to believe.”

If I ran into a 19-year-old version of myself, I’d just tell her to live, full out. I might also tell her to go ahead and have a few babies and not worry about the timing of it.

I never really took any acting classes. I’m just a natural ham, I guess.

Always follow your own path.

I never wanted to give up my power. I wanted to be able to make my own decisions, so that’s why I became involved in management, bottom line.

Sometimes I pray when I really feel like I need God to help me with something, and sometimes we just have conversations. We just kick it.

I don’t care how much money you have, free stuff is always a good thing.

I don’t want to be a supermodel; I want to be a role model.

I’m not allowed to get a big head, I’ve still got to do the simple things in life.

The whole of the developments and operations of analysis are now capable of being executed by machinery … As soon as an Analytical Engine exists, it will necessarily guide the future course of science.

If you are under the impression you have already perfected yourself, you will never rise to the heights you are no doubt capable of.

The mind of man is capable of anything.

I believe that water will one day be employed as fuel, that hydrogen and oxygen which constitute it, used singly or together, will furnish an inexhaustible source of heat and light, of an intensity of which coal is not capable.

I will always be a fire, with or without somebody igniting me.

Whatever one man is capable of imagining, other men will prove themselves capable of realizing.

Violence is the last refuge of the incompetent.
