I had a lovely pregnancy. It was a beautiful, magical time for us.

Women should never go without earrings. Passing on them is an opportunity missed.

My own style influences have to do with where I grew up, in the Bronx, and I still like to wear bangles and big hoops!

It's a shame to call somebody a 'diva' simply because they work harder than everybody else.

Beauty is only skin deep. I think what's really important is finding a balance of mind, body and spirit.

I could serve coffee using my rear as a ledge.

You have to remember the value of your individuality - that you have something special and different to offer that nobody else can.

Don't push your weaknesses, play with your strengths

I have the stardom glow.

I'm a hopeless romantic and passionate person when it comes to love.

I swear to God, I don't remember anything Gwyneth Paltrow was in. Some people get hot by association. I heard more about her and Brad Pitt and I ever heard about her work.

Sometimes the grief was nearby, waiting, just barely held back, and I could ignore it for a while. But at other times it was like a cup that was always full and kept spilling over.

I would never slay the dragon, because the dragon was also me.

There are many victories worse than a defeat.

A crusade is, simply put, something that's bigger than you are. It's a "cause" with an impact that reaches beyond your personal wants and needs.

Faith is not a blind, irrational conviction. In order to believe, we must know what we believe, and the grounds on which our faith rests.

It doesn't do much good to have a quality image, whether it's with the facility or whether it's with the merchandise, if you don't have real quality people taking care of your customers.

Healing is embracing what is most feared; healing is opening what has been closed, softening what has hardened into obstruction, healing is learning to trust life.

I don't have any rock star demeanor to me. I just can't pull that off.

We should be involved in quiet acts of selfless service.

Insane for your sweet, sweet love!
