By trying to live Christmas 12 months a year, we CAN make this world a better place to live - for others and for ourselves.

Don't limit yourself. Many people limit themselves to what they think they can do. You can go as far as your mind lets you. What you believe, remember, you can achieve.

Every achievement, big or small, begins in your mind.

A good goal is like a strenuous exercise - it makes you stretch.

Never give up, because you never know if the next try is going to be the one that works.

With a theatre audience there's always the additional sense of a sustained challenge of which I'm acutely aware and for which you need to have the tools ready - your voice, physicality, brain.

True poverty does not come from God.

Look into a mirror, make eye contact with yourself, and say "I love me" as many times as possible during the day.
