Even an atheist finds God when they point at what they don't believe in.

Remember, people only rain on your parade because they're jealous of your sun and tired of their shade.

If I don't like something that's going on in my life, I change it. And I don't sit and complain about it for a year.

I've made mistakes in my life for sure.

Embrace your curves and who you are. I feel proud if young girls look up to me and say, "I'm curvy, and I'm proud of it now".

I'm not trying to influence anyone else; I'm not saying, "Do what I do." I think it's a little pretentious to say, "I'm a role model"; I would never say that, and I don't think of myself that way.

I love when people underestimate me and then become pleasantly surprised.

It's time to recognise the Armenian Genocide.

Take and chance and don't ever look back. Never have regrets, just lessons learned.

I remember my grandfather telling me how each of us must live with a full measure of loneliness that is inescapable, and we must not destroy ourselves with our passion to escape the aloneness.

What could be more advantageous in an intellectual contest - whether it be chess, bridge, or stock selection - than to have opponents who have been taught that thinking is a waste of energy?

I like to address the fears of my culture. I believe it's good to face the enemy, for the enemy is fear.
