I have a dream, and a plan, to combine the commercial possibilities of Valentine's Day with the substance and meaning of black history month. I call it: Blackentine's Day.

I wish I had played team sports. I think every kid should. Teamwork builds character - teaches people about leadership and cooperation.

One Christmas my father kept our tree up till March. He hated to see it go. I loved that.

I love Christmas. Frosty the Snowman, peace on Earth and mangers, Salvation Army bell ringers and reindeer, the movie 'Meet Me in St. Louis,' office parties and cookies.

Politicians who wear little tennis socks with the balls at the back should not be taken seriously.

Homemade sweaters are always itchy.

Hypocrisy is great fodder for comedy.

I know a lot about a few things - mostly useless things.

It's much easier to make jokes about sensitive issues if there is some dissent, some conflict.

Christmas is a stocking stuffed with sugary goodness.

One could say, that #‎ Masons were raised right.

Let him who would move the world first move himself.

All I desire is to be so happy that I die.

I want to protect my own happiness. I'm not an angel. I'm just a normal girl.

I'm terrified of walking into a room full of people. Sitting down at a dinner table with 15 strangers brings me out in a sweat.

Do any of us understand ourselves? all the different selves that each of us is?

All I've ever wanted, since I was a child, was to do something wonderful.

The soul takes flight to the world that is invisible but there arriving she is sure of bliss and forever dwells in paradise.

Through all the drama - whether damned or not - Love gilds the scene, and women guide the plot.

I'm no linguist, but I have been told that in the Russian language, there isn't even a word for freedom.

I just think it is so delightful to see people, let their elbows free. I think the exuberance of it all is really exciting to me. It's a signal of the abundance of diversity and creative expression.
