We're really up against it, we poor women: A bachelor's a hard thing to convert

Live each day as if your life had just begun.

Correction does much, but encouragement does more.

We do not have to visit a madhouse to find disordered minds; our planet is the mental institution of the universe.

Every day we should hear at least one little song, read one good poem, see one exquisite picture, and, if possible, speak a few sensible words.

The moment one definitely commits oneself, then Providence moves too. Whatever you think you can do, or believe you can do, begin it. Action has magic, power and grace.

Magic is believing in yourself, if you can do that, you can make anything happen.

At the moment of commitment the entire universe conspires to assist you.

Courage is the commitment to begin without any guarantee of success.

If I accept you as you are, I will make you worse; however, if I treat you as though you are what you are capable of becoming, I help you become that.

There is nothing worse than aggressive stupidity.

Disbelief held me down inside my footsteps, making my body heavy but my heart wild.

Sometimes the only way to deal with horrific things in life is through a dark sense of humor.

I'm not a hopeless romantic. I'm quite the reverse. I'm a nasty piece of work, an ego maniac.

every time I've held a rose, It seems I only felt the thorns

All people would really want peace and all would want to be sure that they would not be taken advantage of.

All that we are is the result of what we have thought; what we think we become.

As an actor, or as a person, I like to do things that are challenging.

The goal is not to be better than anyone else but rather be better than you were yesterday.

I love my dad; I'm a daddy's girl, all the way.

I'm going to be dead for a long time, so I have a lot to do now.
