I'm the kind of person you want to kill. I had an incredibly happy childhood. I married a terrific guy when I was 23. I have great, well-adjusted kids. Sometimes my husband and I look at each other and do a little jig in the kitchen. This is the best life.

Yet what you need is not marches, demonstrations, rallies or wide associations, all of them are important. What you need is direct action. The sooner people understand that, the sooner we'll begin to change things.

You live on - in the hearts of everyone you have touched and nurtured while you were here...Death ends life, not a relationship.

Mitch Albom

Ask yourself: Have you been kind today? Make kindness your daily modus operandi and change your world.

Annie Lennox

Every man in the world is better than someone else and not as good someone else.

William Saroyan

We have been cut off from our souls in the West, and because romantic love has become our religion, we think we can find fulfillment through this extraordinary and powerful force that draws us into an illusion of permanence. Passion makes us feel alive, makes us sing, makes us feel in touch with something powerful and wonderful, just as it would if we followed this meaning in life in a more spiritual practice. In the West it is often through such relationships, through another human being, that we search desperately for something, not knowing it is to be found within ourselves.

Sarah Bartlett

Anybody under the age of forty knows hip-hop, gospel and R&ampB pretty well, and it's all a part of what we consider to be 'black music.' There is a natural synergy between the three.

John Legend

I'm a full-time mom right now and a part-time actress.

Valerie Bertinelli

I bet on a horse at ten-to-one. It didn't come in until half-past five.

Henny Youngman

To kill an error is as good a service as, and sometimes even better than, the establishing of a new truth or fact.

Charles Darwin

If a man means to be hard, let him keep in his saddle and speak from that height, above the level of pleading eyes, and with the command of a distant horizon.

George Eliot

I have had a very difficult time with stage fright it undermines your well-being and peace of mind, and it can also threaten your livelihood.
