I can be capable of anything if I allow myself to be. I really realized what an obstacle I was being in my own life.

The amount of time I spent on facing my negative conscious has been most of my struggle and changing my mind-set has been the biggest change in my life not my weight.

A lot of my friends are musicians or artists, and their talent always pushes me to think creatively.

Women come in all shapes and sizes, and we are what we want to be, not the label that is placed on us.

I would like to release an album that I truly believe in, thus it is hard to put a time limit on it. I want to really go deeper and discover myself again through music.

If we can just try every day to be the best versions of ourselves, we are offering to the world the best addition to society.

The weight loss has been a secondary change to the mental changes I have made. Weight loss does not fix problems; how you view yourself does.

Making excuses and not trying because I was scared were my go-to reactions. Nothing was going to change in my life unless I did something about it.

I am only capable of what I allow myself to believe I can do.

I started to realize that everyone goes through those doubts, and I need to try and be the best version of me I can - not only for myself but everyone around me.

Believing in myself has always been hard. For a long time, I constantly compared myself to others, and it took away from the energy I could have been putting into my career.

Truth is not a prerequisite for belief, whilst belief is often times a catalyst for searching for one's own truth.

The biggest key for me to stay healthy is sleep.

I always compare marriage to communism. They're both institutions that don't conform to human nature, so you're going to end up with lying and hypocrisy.

There are so many people I love in the United States, and I've had such great adventures in this country and have been so well received by people here.

After Auschwitz, I no longer cry at funerals.

Fortunately, I was supposed to look confused and disoriented because, God, I felt that way.

The question is, once you have this idea, is this enough? Is it something people would actually switch just to have?

To be 49 years old now and still be called The Kid, that's kind of special.

I think there are fundamentalists all over the world. I think all religions have fundamentalists who have different interpretations of scriptures that are very vague.

I prefer to subscribe to that whole, “everything happens for a reason” theory, mostly because the alternative is too disturbing to think about.
