I would not be comfortable appearing in a country where they have permitted the destruction of such beautiful and intelligent animals.

Let me hear your body talk.

I don't know what my path is yet. I'm just walking on it.

Cancer got me over unimportant fears, like getting old.

My cancer scare changed my life. I'm grateful for every new, healthy day I have. It has helped me prioritize my life.

Family, nature and health all go together.

My biggest mistake was my best lesson... you don't learn anything when everything is going perfectly.

To me luxury is to be at home with my daughter, and the occasional massage doesn't hurt.

Fight each round take it on the chin. And never never never ever give in.

I believe love is what makes the world go round. No matter how old or young, love is why we are here. It is the very essence of one's being.

I love that quiet time when nobody's up and the animals are all happy to see me.

Writing is like daydreaming through your fingers.

Learn your instrument. Be honest. Don't do anything phony. There is so much crap floating around. There is plenty of room for a bit of honest writing.

There are worlds of possibility inherent in our consciousness that can facilitate our own transformation. What future have you imagined for yourself?

The pursuit of peace resembles the building of a great cathedral. It is the work of a generation. In concept it requires a mater-architect; in execution, the labors of many.

Barnacles on the container ship of consciousness.

It is unrealistic to think you can have an inflexible identity that never has to give or take or make compromises.

My perfect girl would be pretty mad, but one you can have a conversation with. No one can be too mad for me, the madder the better. I love a crazy chick!

I don't like this idea of division: that if you're a clever woman then you've got to be a particular way. Because men don't. Men please themselves.

Criticism didn't really stop us and it shouldn't ever stop anyone, because critics are only the people who can't get a record deal themselves.

I don't think any other emotion is the equivalent of laughter. So I do whatever I can to laugh all the time and to hide my pain.
