God is my defender.

Aim for the stars. You will sooner reach the moon.

What you think of me is none of my business.

We are what we think.

I believe in miracles.

Love is stronger than hate.

Asking is the beginning of receiving.

We are what we are.

God is the Creator of all things.

Daily dance uplift the soul to spiritual realms.

A revived spirit, a renewed soul.

Patience is both the tool for and the result of, our efforts.

I think when something is apolitical and it gets politicised, then it's incredibly disappointing.

Then I left school at 16 and worked in Perth Repertory Theatre, which was quite nearby where I lived. And I worked there for about six or seven months, as part of the stage crew.

Of course I want to test myself. I enjoy fighting. But I also have six kids, and I want them to go to college. I hope that I can reach a point where I get the best of both worlds.

There are poets and there are grownups.

All these types of love come out of duty, respect, and gratitude. Most of them, as the women in my county know, are sources of sadness, rupture, and brutality.

I go to church as an expression of my need for God and for God's family.

In all the poems I've written I've not really engaged in politics, and when I've found myself moving in that direction I've always stopped myself.

The bigger our vision for the world, the less personal worries we have.

Government is the enemy until you need a friend.
