Now when I enter a carriage, it almost empties. But there's always one brave enough to stay.

I believe in individuality, that everybody is special, and it's up to them to find that quality and let it live.

We're not perfect; we all have things that people might not like to see, and I like to show my faults.

I go feminine, I go masculine. I am both, actually. I think the male side is a bit stronger in me, and I have to tone it down sometimes. I'm not like a normal woman, that's for sure.

I thought I'd take style to its limit... My philosophy is a belief in magic, good luck , self-confidence, and pride.

This is depression, it comes when your blocking. This is expression it comes when you're rocking

Whatever one is creating, one has to stick to one's guns and just do it. That is all. Put your foot down and do not let your work be compromised.

Delusional or not, maybe if I believe in a better world with enough conviction, and convince others to believe it as well, then it will be real.

Busyness chokes deep thinking.

I could be whatever I wanted to be if I trusted that music that song that vibration of God that was inside of me.

Young people need their own private places which mothers don't belong to, even if they want mother all around the edge of that.

Truth [comes only] from those ... who cultivate their reason.

I have, perhaps, a slave-like constitution which is too easily restrained by bonds; it then becomes rebellious and bursts out in a comic revolution.

Growing up in Hawaii, the ocean is where I'm most at home. When I'm away from it and landlocked I long for the ocean. There's something about it, I'm at peace with it.

Each and every one of us should stop playing small and license ourselves to become one of the giants of the new century. We will need champions by the truckload.
