If you love your country, then you need to be thinking a lot more critically about what justice.

You ultimately judge the civility of a society not by how it treats the rich, the powerful, the protected and the highly esteemed, but by how it treats the poor, the disfavored and the disadvantaged.

I am, by nature, a guitar player... I learned all of these other instruments around that, and around the theory that I built learning the guitar.

Sometimes hope is all we have, and to lose that is to lose all.

Motherhood was an ever widening circle of good-byes.

The best way to learn to be a lady is to see how other ladies do it.

So I be written in the Book of Love. I do not care about that Book Above. Erase my name, or write it as you will. So I be written in the Book of Love.

But if used for retribution, magic is vengeance incarnate.
