One of the reasons I was so unhappy for years was because I never embraced my emotions and I was trying to stay in control.

No matter what you're going through, there's a light at the end of the tunnel.

It's okay to not be superwoman all the time.

Tall, thin, curvy, short – whatever you are, you are beautiful.

Go on and try to tear me down I will be rising from the ground

I’m not perfect and I don’t have to be.

Your mind . . . can be your best friend or your worst enemy, but it's your choice to make.

I think scars are like battle wounds - beautiful, in a way. They show what you've been through and how strong you are for coming out of it.

Creativity is what helps me escape a lot of my inner demons.

Nothing is more beautiful than a smile that has struggled through tears

Whatever you dream of doing one day, don't give up on that dream because you never know where it can take you.

If you are a writer you locate yourself behind a wall of silence and no matter what you are doing, driving a car or walking or doing housework you can still be writing, because you have that space.

And yet it takes only the smallest pleasure or pain to teach us time’s malleability.

One's nature is like a mountain

Opinions I have about anything are in my personal life.

It's also easy to fall back into what's familiar, what feels safe, what you've done before.

Every power draws its ultimate consequences at every moment.

I'm an athlete, my job is not negotiating, it's not my field of expertise. I'm an emotional guy - it's normal, a lot of athletes are, and we're very susceptible to get our ego cut because of that.

The Hollies, after I left in 1968, had the audacity, the gall, to have three number one records after I left. Thanks a lot, guys.

I’m not a vomit in the club kinda girl.

I believe in the absolute oneness of God and, therefore, also of humanity. I have always believed God to be without form. What I did hear was like a Voice from afar, and yet quite near.
