The joy of motherhood: what a mother experiences when all her children are in bed

We cannot protect ourselves from trouble, but we can dance through the puddles of life with a rainbow smile, twirling the only umbrella we need -- the umbrella of God's love.

Never let a problem to be solved become more important than a person to be loved.

The attitude of kindness is everyday stuff like a great pair of sneakers. Not frilly. Not fancy. Just plain and comfortable.

If you can forgive the person you were, accept the person you are, and believe in the person you will become, you are headed for joy. So celebrate your life.

Attitude is the mind's paintbrush; it can color any situation.

Always remember that better days are ahead - if not in this life, in the next.

Patience is the ability to idle your motor when you feel like stripping your gears.

Faith is seeing light with your heart when all your eyes see is darkness.

Prayer is asking for rain and faith is carrying the umbrella.

A balanced diet is a cookie in each hand.

No person ever died by drowning in their own sweat.

No, not a feminist. I'm a humanist. I'm neither one side nor the other.

I'm always watching films. The Academy pretty much sends me every film that's ever been done. I enjoy watching them, especially with the people I know.

In fine, the truffle is the very diamond of gastronomy.

Florida, just because you're shaped like some combination of a gun and a d*ck doesn't mean you have to act that way.

You never really hear the truth from your subordinates until after 10 in the evening.

You can't even trade a single fart with the next guy. Each and every one of us has to live out his own life. Don't waste time thinking about who's most talented.

Manchester United breathe football. When I have to make hard decisions, I always listen to little boy inside me and what he wants. That little boy was screaming for United.

I was never nervous directing. Not once. I'm more nervous acting. I'm far more nervous on set, before I say my lines, than I ever have been, as a director.

All we can do is try not to fall.
