When people hurt us, the best thing to do isn’t to ask why they did it but to remind ourselves that it wasn’t our fault.

Personally, I think they killed the bear because they were afraid of it. That s what people do, kill the things they re afraid of.

I'm tired of people thinking they're doing me favours.

Let me tell something, seeing your name and psychiatric ward on the same piece of paper isn't the best way to start your day.

Once you realise there's nothing to be afraid of when you die, there's nothing else to worry about.

I knew people were talking, but I wasn't listening. I wasn't interested in anything anyone had to say.

That sounds weird: "kill yourself." It makes it sound like you tried to murder someone, only that someone is you.

That's what people do. Kill the things they're afraid of.

Why is it that you have to warn people about who you are?

No one in France cares if you tried to kill yourself. In fact, I think they like you better because you're all tragic.

I keep feeling like everyone wants me to apologize for something.

But I don't understand God. I don't understand how he could see the way people treat one another, and not chalk up the whole human race as a bad idea.

My mother and my father were very nurturing and wonderful examples of how to live your life. I really had a cool foundation.

Never did a government commence under auspices so favorable, nor ever was success so complete.

There was always a creative impulse in me but I never felt rooted to anything.

I find books that have a moral and spiritual center, that speak to what is really important and lasting, hugely appealing.

There is nothing Madison Avenue can give us that will make us more beautiful women. We are beautiful because God created us that way.

Your soul is boundlessly impassioned and always prepared to impart to you whatever you need to thrive.

Too often, the person who wrecks our work is us.

A belief may be larger than a fact.

I grew up in an entertainment family, and so I saw how susceptible you are to the ups and downs of this business.
