My chief 'success philosophy' is, 'Give people every opportunity to say "Yes" to you'.

Nothing real stands between you and your happiness, only illusion and confusion.

'One new perception, one fresh thought, one act of surrender, one change of heart, one leap of faith, can change your life forever.'

Love is the ultimate coach. Do what you love, let love guide you, and let love inspire you.

The final and only act of healing is to accept that there is nothing wrong with you.

No amount of self-improvement can make up for any lack of self-acceptance.

The real gift of gratitude is that the more grateful you are, the more present you become.

True forgiveness is a self-healing process which starts with you and gradually extends to everyone else.

Make a commitment to having fun. See your best friends and make time for your hobbies and passions.

Your relationship with yourself sets the tone for every other relationship you have.

Some people 'go' through life; and other people 'grow' through life. Which one are you?

If we know the good we ought to do, but fail to act, we sin.

The courage to dream, the courage to act.

He that is conscious of a stink in his breeches is [suspicious] of every wrinkle in another's nose.

Women are so gentle, so affectionate, so true in sorrow, so untired and untiring! but the leaf withers not sooner, and tropic light fades not more abruptly.

I have done so much: modeling, acting, singing, the calendar, the lingerie line, and there have been times where I have wanted to give up but I went for it.

There's an incredible comfort level that I have on film sets because it's where I've grown up.

Everything in all creation responds in obedience to the Creator... until we get to you and me. We have the audacity to look God in the face and say, "No."

I don't think about those things, really. I work hard on everything I do. Everything is a struggle, everything is hard, everything is difficult.

We've been at war for many years in Afghanistan following 9/11. We know that we've got young men and women on the ground now. We've got our blood and treasure at stake there already.
