I have just wanted to be an actress. That's always been my goal. I didn't want to be famous.

It doesn't matter how old you are, or what you do in your life, you never stop needing your mom.

If being crazy means living life as if it matters, then I don't mind being completely insane.

Femininity for me means happiness and freedom...freedom of being who you are in whatever shape or size you come in.

Loving someone is setting them free, letting them go.

I'd much rather be known as some curvy Kate than as some skinny stick.

Because of the person I am I won't be knocked down — ever. They can say I'm fat, I'm thin, I'm whatever, and I'll never stop. I just won't. I've got too much to do. I've too much to be happy about.

I have no regrets. If you regret things, you're sort of stepping backwards. I'm a believer in going forwards.

Courage and kindness, loyalty, truth, and helpfulness are always the same and always needed.

My theory was that a city without a newspaper is a city without a soul.

The most important thing about recovery is to pass the message on.

Faith and Fear make poor bedfellows. Where one is found, the other cannot exist.

Except in this ignorant and material century, men have always worn precious stuffs and beautiful colours as well as women.

You build a better company by building better people.
