The public has become my fairy godmother.

It’s all about falling in love with yourself and sharing that love with someone who appreciates you, rather than looking for love to compensate for a self love deficit.

The price we pay for being ourselves is worth it.

I've never felt that fear is my enemy. Fear is my friend. It offers me a chance to stay alert, keep growing, continue creating something new. If you don't take that sort of risk, you learn nothing.

A man has always wanted to lay me down but he never wanted to pick me up.

I have used all the manure that has been thrown on me as fertilizer to make me stronger.

I fall in love with myself, and I want someone to share it with me. And I want someone to share me, with me.

I am learning all the time. The tombstone will be my diploma.

My recipe for life is not being afraid of myself, afraid of what I think or of my opinions.

My house was bugged. They couldn't find any information on me being a subversive because I happen to love America; I just don't like some of the things the government is doing.

Don't depend on other people to be responsible for you. Don't make yourself stressed out over nonsensical things like material things.

If they're not willing to explore beyond the realm of their safety, certainty, and comfort, they will never know if their fantasies are true.

It is better to avoid the temptation than get entangled in the sin.

Stupid men, always thinking they're the ones who get to do the rescuing.

I've looked on many women with lust. I've committed adultery in my heart many times. God knows I will do this and forgives me.

I have more influence now than when I had the power.

Mitt Romney says he believes in America and that he will restore American exceptionalism. I have news for him, we already have an exceptional American as president and we believe in Barack Obama.

For me, I wanted to create something that's much more driven by a type of selfishness, a type of decadence.

Humanity's mission is to find a peace that lies beyond the veil - a peace that is not of this world. The peace that is not of this world is not dependent on human circumstances.

When you're in the middle of a pennant race, you can't go up there thinking about home runs.
