I'm not a big fan of romantic comedies, believe it or not.

I'm pretty comfortable with my body. I'm imperfect. The imperfections are there. People are going to see them, but I take the view you only live once.

Only in failure do you reach success. You can only get to the good stuff when you've done the hard stuff.

I do think that there is an innocence to people who are searching for things. It's a beautiful thing when you leave yourself vulnerable to discover anything and everything.

You have to know what you need. You need someone who's going to really push you hard. But they also need to understand that, emotionally, sometimes today's not the day to push so hard.

You don't wear stuff for other people; you've got to wear it for yourself.

Never worry about bad press. All that matters is if they spell your name right.

Be an advocate of love and kindness.

Entrepreneurs don’t ask for permission. They act per a mission.

The devout life does not solely entail living as a monk or ascetic, though that is fine. The devout life requires bringing God into all things.

I long for, not a writer's retreat - I can write in any situation - but a reader's retreat.

I've had a wordless phase, and that's still not entirely over: what I sing is not always literally meant that way, and you can hear that in the way it is sung.

A fool is often as dangerous to deal with as a knave, and always more incorrigible.

Stylistically speaking, Barack Obama could hardly be further from Jimmy Carter if he really had been born in Kenya.

The only thing that matters is that we stand firm.
