I believe forgiveness is possible for everybody, for everything, but I'm a Buddhist.

Sometimes I feel like I'm seeing it all at once and it's too much. My heart fills up like a balloon that's about to burst.

I felt pride, wonderful pride, when I was captain. It was an honour to take over from Labby. Anybody who has ever captained a big club, which Everton are, will tell you it's a great honour.

 Some women speak a third, 
the language of queens.
