You can’t let your failures define you. You have to let your failures teach you.

Change will not come if we wait for some other person or some other time. We are the ones we've been waiting for. We are the change that we seek.

Just because we have the best hammer does not mean that every problem is a nail.

Change is never easy, but always possible.

Don’t ever let anybody tell you that your efforts don’t matter or that your voice doesn’t count. Don’t ever believe that you can’t make a difference. You have.

Where you are right now doesn't have to determine where you'll end up.

I don't think that I'm a top 40 artist in any way. So I don't think I'm that mainstream.

It is against the spirit of ahimsa to overawe even one person into submission.

As a grandmother, I've learned that you can't buy love. But your grandchildren are disappointed when you don't try.

Love unlocks doors and opens windows that weren't even there before.
