The post office has a great charm at one point of our lives. When you have lived to my age, you will begin to think letters are never worth going through the rain for.

There is no charm equal to tenderness of heart.

My heart is, and always will be, yours.

It isn't what we say or think that defines us, but what we do.

There is nothing I would not do for those who are really my friends. I have no notion of loving people by halves, it is not my nature.

The younger brother must help to pay for the pleasures of the elder.

Our scars make us know that our past was for real

None of us want to be in calm waters all our lives.

The problem isn’t that I think so highly of myself. It is just that you think so little of yourself. Live life BIG, BOLD and OUT LOUD!

The key to sticking with any diet is learning how to control hunger and manage cravings.

You could say people are living longer because of the decline in religion. Not many people believe in the hereafter, so they keep going.

I only wish to be the fountain of love from which you drink, every drop promising eternal passion.

I can't take any more white boys noodling around on their guitars.

I was always a great believer in starting at the top. I really think that focusing on a career and working your way up is way way way overestimated.

Gender is not something that one is, it is something one does, an act… a doing rather than a being.
