There's no life without humour. It can make the wonderful moments of life truly glorious, and it can make tragic moments bearable.

I believe a lot of our lives are spent asleep, and what I've been trying to do is hold on to those moments when a little spark cuts through the fog and nudges you.

Life is a game and true love is a trophy.

I finally moved out of my parent's house. It was only fair to let my sister have her own room.

I feel... sexier, I think, with short hair. I feel like an alien!

Yet there is disappointment in Washington and in the United States that Canada is not supporting us fully.

I grew up listening to English music.

Whatever path you follow push on till tomorrow, Love all, Serve all, and Create no sorrow.
