I've never been more nervous in my life than singing the national anthem at the Super Bowl.

Like every other girl in the world, my most embarrassing moment had to do with a guy completely turning me down. His loss!

My experiences remind me that it's those black clouds that make the blue skies even more beautiful.

I'm very friendly or whatever, but I would hardly say that I'm that cookie-cutter. I don't live in L.A. or New York. I live in Texas, and I go to hole-in-the-wall bars, so there's no paparazzi there.

I never said I was a 'good girl.' I'm not a bad girl.

People keep asking me if I am having more fun, being blonde, but I always have fun! Whether I'm blonde, redhead, or brunette! I always have fun.

God will never give you anything you can't handle, so don't stress.

I'm a hygiene freak. I'm like obsessive-compulsive when it comes to washing your hands.

Honestly, I just think we all have special gifts, everyone. You know, obviously, some are more noticeable than others and that's why there's the limelight. Everybody's in it.

Everything changes, but beauty remains.

Pick the weeds and keep the flowers.

In the meantime, I’llwish it upon a star.'- Michael Cooper

First-person narrators is the way I know how to write a book with the greatest power and chance of artistic success.

For a control freak, love and the desire to control others are synonymous. Once they lose control over the object of their desire, hostility takes over in full force.

My talent is such that no undertaking, however vast in size... has ever surpassed my courage.

Successful women have an aura that says ‘I belong in this seat’.

Beauty in all things-no, we cannot hope for that; but some place set apart for it.

All laws are an attempt to domesticate the natural ferocity of the species.

I wonder what the difference between love and control is, but I'm afraid to look those words up in a dictionary.

Hindu Dharma is like a boundless ocean teeming with priceless gems. The deeper you dive the more treasures you find.

I am religious in the sense that I believe in God and I believe that there is an abiding logical spirit that controls what goes on to a certain extent.
