I am resigning because my secret leaves the governor's office vulnerable.

I try to be grateful for the abundance of the blessings that I have, for the journey that I'm on and to relish each day as a gift.

Firefighters, police officers and state troopers place themselves in harm's way every day, every week, every year.

To be able to love and live in freedom means to be able to make godly decisions. To make godly decisions we have to surrender our egos and all the falsity and shame that goes with it.

Throughout my life, I have grappled with my own identity, who I am. As a young child, I often felt ambivalent about myself; in fact, confused.

Because of an adulterous affair I shall leave office in November.

I engaged in an adult consensual affair with another man.

I'm on the board of a national group called Faith in America. It's designed to fight religious-based bigotry.

No relief was forthcoming from my then-Catholic faith, which said the practice of homosexuality was a 'mortal sin' subject to damnation.

I'm grateful for my brokenness. I'm grateful for my humility.

At a point in every person's life, one has to look deeply into the mirror of one's soul and decide one's unique truth in the world, not as we may want to see it or hope to see it, but as it is.

High thoughts must have high language.

Semantics are just some antics used by the enemy to get us distracted and off course from the destiny and inheritance that God hand-picked and created specifically for us...

There are times when you see how ridiculous is this life, how ludicrous it is, you know, leaving your house every morning and being followed by paparazzi.

I didn't know if it would be a success-ful one, or what the stages would be, but I always saw myself as a lifetime musician and songwriter.

I’m torn. I want an ‘R’ (rating) because we can get a lot of cool scenes into it, but then I like the idea of younger girls being able to see it.

Social support is everything.

It's acceptable for men to act the fool. When women try, they're considered aggressive and opinionated.

But every jet of chaos which threatens to exterminate us is convertible by intellect into wholesome force. Fate is unpenetrated causes.

I believe in one God, and no more; and I hope for happiness beyond this life.

From one tyrant to another. That is the world we know, now
