You're amazing, just the way you are.

And when you smile, the whole world stops and stares for a while

When everything in life gets so complicated it only takes a day to change it

If you ever forget how much you really mean to me, Every day I will remind you

Be in control. Know who you are. And don't try to be different just to be different.

You can't knock on opportunity's door and not be ready.

Never had much faith in love or miracles, Never wanna put my heart on the line

You have to be who you are, and hopefully they dig it

You gotta know what you are, who you are and how you want to be portrayed.

When I see your face, there's not a thing that I would change 'cause you're are amazing just the way you are.

You have to envision your life, and then go backwards.

I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.

...Many shadows hide behind light, and the best lies are those seasoned liberally with truth: salt covering the flavor of rotten meat.

One if by land, two if by sea.

You have to transmit to them what its like being in the theater. And it has to come from somewhere inside you and not by being like what somebody did last year.

I don't pick subjects as much as they pick me.

I object to you using words like squander and pork. What is pork in one part of the country is an essential project in another part.

As much as life can suck, it always beats the alternative.

I think gambling can be a good thing if you don't take it too seriously. Take it and have fun with it, and don't lose what you can't afford to lose.

When I was young, to have a big nose, big lips or dark skin was the worst. You were the wretched.

When I hear something going wrong, I insist on it being put right.
