I love genealogical research. That's the reason I bought my first computer years ago to put my genealogy records on the computer. I've always enjoyed tracing family history.

I don't dwell on my age. It might limit what I can do. As long as I have my mind and health, it's just a number.

I give thanks every day for each new day that the Lord allows me to live and enjoy life to the fullest.

The yearning for study was always there. I loved to learn. I really enjoyed studying history. Taking college classes was just something I wanted to do. It gave me such a feeling of satisfaction.

I never set out to do anything unusual or newsworthy. I just like to study and learn, and I've always been that way.

Calmness is the cradle of power.

Nature is relic of pre-human civilizations.

Realize that God uses the fires of life to purify your faith, to shape you into Christ’s image, and to cause you to love Him…even more!

I am from the inner city, the ghetto. If I can use my platform to carry on a legacy and talk about something that's real, I have to do that, period.

Women can really be who they are. I'm about to say the F word, feminist. Often that word has such a negative connotation.

Humans crave knowledge, and when that craving ends, we are no longer human.
