As a character, it's very interesting to play someone who wants to change their life and have him change it.

When you finally accept that it's OK not to have answers and it's OK not to be perfect, you realize that feeling confused is a normal part of what it is to be a human being.

You go through spells where you feel that maybe you're too sensitive for this world. I certainly felt that.

Crazy isn't being broken, or swallowing a dark secret. It's you or me, amplified.

I was very depressed after breaking off my engagement with Johnny ten years ago. I was embarrassingly dramatic at the time, but you have to remember I was only 19 years old.

There was a time when I was 19 when I really, really, really thought I was going crazy. I was exhausted and going through a terrible depression.

I've learned that it's OK to be flawed, that life can be messy, that some days you glide and some days you fall, but most important, that there are no secret answers out there.

You have good days and bad days, and depression's something that, you know, is always with you.

You can't pay enough money to... cure that feeling of being broken and confused.

I am not a person who can really sit around and think about regrets because with every bad experience that you have, there is weirdly something good that comes from it.

I was inspired by lots of people, certainly in acting and in writing and stuff, but I never wanted to be somebody else.

To say that, “I will not agree (will not accept)” is great egoism!

It is important to ask ourselves, as citizens, whether a world power can provide global leadership on the basis of fear and anxiety.

Stop attaching so much weight to being right. In the grand scheme of things, being right is insignificant compared with being happy.

Nothing tends so much to the advancement of knowledge as the application of a new instrument.

Something is being released in the spiritual realm, when it does go to the phone. When the mantle gets passed to you go to the phone and sow a $70 tithe to the $700 pledge.

Jesus died as He had lived-praying, forgiving, loving, sacrificing, trusting, quoting Scripture. If I die as I have lived, how will I die?

I brought Bhagawad Gita as a gift for the Japanese PM...I don't have anything better than Gita to give & nor does the World has anything better to receive.

I do have to say my daughter, Sunday, said to me [I was being] overprotective, so you must have been a fly on the wall.

Teamwork does not come naturally. Let's face it. We are born with certain inclinations, but sharing isn't one of them.

You show your worth by what you seek.
