Jesus lets us be real with our life and our faith.

But the kind of love that God created and demonstrated is a costly one because it involves sacrifice and presence. It's a love that operates more like a sign language than being spoken outright.

Grace works that way. It's a kind word from a gentle person with an impossible prayer. It's a force sometimes transmitted best hand to hand in a dark place.

...we need to stop plotting the course and instead just land the plane on our plans to make a difference by getting to the "do" part of faith.

That's one of those things about love. It always assumes it can find a way to express itself.

When you trust someone, you don't need to know everything.

Thinking about work as a day job has made a big difference in the way I approach what I do. It also helped me not to confuse who I am with what I do.

I support the death penalty for the kingpin, the guy at the top, but I don't think you should throw a drug offender in jail for five years, and let a mugger out after a year.

Americans thinking that America will continue to lead the world in innovation and quality of life without some quick and serious educational improvements are dangerously delusional.

[Donald Trump] said we're going to have a big door. He means lawful immigration will continue, but we're not going to allow the nation to be at risk in this fashion.

I do come shackled with whatever people think I am.

Everytime you grab at love you will lose a snowflake of your memory

My fashion philosophy is that if I like it, I wear it.

I have always maintained that if a program is to be successful, it must... be voluntary... based on need and must not be financed through a payroll tax.

Let's be realistic, how many people are buying a $2,000 skirt? I love to design things that people can actually buy. I'm staggered by what a boot costs today.

For a long time, I was almost ashamed of being an actress. I felt like it was a shallow occupation. People would be watching my every move.
