My parents told me I must get married. I was seen as a failure if I didn't do it.

I love you more than I have ever found a way to say to you.

I do think that when you make repeated mistakes, it's usually because you're just not coming to grips with something.

The cruelest lies are often told without a word The kindest truths are often spoken, never heard

I'm older than I was, and I'm still washed-up, and I haven't changed my music one iota. It's just much easier to do this when people are being nice to you.

The clock never stops, never stops, never waits. We're growing old. It's getting late.

And all I really want to say is you're the reason I want to stay.

Notes don't make music until you learn to insert silence between them.

I feel like a quote out of context, withholding the rest so I can be for you what you want to see.

It seems to me that if you or I must choose between two courses of thought or action, we should remember our dying and try so to live that our death brings no pleasure to the world.

Just ticking boxes is not the ultimate goal here. Embracing a culture of teamwork and discipline is. And if we recognised the opportunity, the two-minute WHO checklist is just a start.

Sorrowful tears drench the earth, rise again in the form of hope

Problem solving, and I don't mean algebra, seems to be my life's work. Maybe it's everyone's life's work.

When you beat Arsenal, they are a good three points.

A tree lives on its roots. If you change the root, you change the tree. Culture lives in human beings. If you change the human heart the culture will follow.

Julie Christie was absolutely amazing in Away From Her. Brilliant movie. It was the moving story of a woman who forgets her own husband. Hillary Clinton calls it the feel good movie of the year.

The best thoughts most often come in the morning after waking, while still in bed or while walking.

Leaving behind nights of terror and fear, I rise. Into a daybreak that's wondrously clear, I rise.
