I am stuck in the 70's. I can't seem to get away from that era.

My husband and I are best of friends first and foremost. We fight like cats and dogs, but never stay mad for long. I was lucky to find him, he is in every way, my soulmate.

I have willpower and determination. I am very resilient, like rock.

We all come from dysfunctional families and these days I guess that's pretty normal.

Certain foods no longer agree with me. If I eat French fries, I might feel sick to my stomach.

I realized that I have to slow down. I work so hard, I'm so busy.

I am always cautious.

I have a child to feed and a spirit that can't be crushed, so I'm able to move ahead.

I started doing yoga.

It's not just being overweight that's dangerous. Stress is dangerous.

If I'm known as the girl that lost weight and it's been six years later and I've still kept off the 110 pounds, God bless. Because I never kept off 100 pounds before in my life.

If the novel is dead, I'm a necrophiliac.

Some people are meant to frame your destiny but not reach the destined destination with you.

If you want to achieve, identify your passion. Ultimately your passion and the vision makes your destiny

Ultimately, it's a sense of camaraderie and friendship with local people that is core to my journeys.

My mom just wants to make sure that my heart is always in whatever I do and I'm in things for the right reasons.

People get trapped into thinking about just one way of doing things.

There's a new Facebook app that will post a final status update for you after you die. That's ridiculous. I don't need someone to change my status when I die. I need them to water my Farmville crops.

Of all the tyrants the world affords, our own affections are the fiercest lords.

Thus there is no doubt the eye was intended for us to see with.

The true order of learning should be first, what is necessary; second, what is useful, and third, what is ornamental. To reverse this arrangement is like beginning to build at the top of the edifice.
