My family are my priority but I've always had a strong work ethic and I like to be busy.

I want to be buried with a mobile phone, just in case I'm not dead.

I should have been out there having a wild time like all the other girls my age, but I wasn't. I was going home every night to what was, initially, a very happy marriage.

Follow your dreams, because your dreams won't follow you.

I was a prefect at school, I never had a tattoo, got a detention or pierced my ears more than once.

I never believed I wouldn't make it - and perhaps that's why I've always found work. I've always stuck at everything I've ever done. I absolutely won't give up.

I am an optimist. I think, as bad as life sometimes gets, there is so much joy and so much good stuff, that there is a balance.

My husband says my toes are like Wall's cocktail sausages. He feels peckish whenever he sees them.

I don't care who or what judges me, nothing's going to stop me from living my life how I choose.

If I had a dream show, I probably shouldn't even mention it in this climate, but it would be like a kind of Fix It show.

In the past, I've thrown myself into work so much there's been very little room for anything else.

We ourselves are made of Stardust.

Paul Simon is my absolute hero. He's one of a kind. He wrote his own ticket in life by being himself.

Creativity is the marriage humanity makes with eternity.

If we are going to commit American troops, we must be certain they have a clear mission, an achievable goal and an exit strategy.

The cause of Freedom and the cause of Peace are bound together.

Strive always to excel in virtue and truth.

Truth is no man's slave - but lies - what magnificent servants they make.

When you're green, your growing. When you're ripe, you rot.

Better mankind born without mouths and stomachs than always to worry about money to buy, to shop, to fix, to cook, to wash, to clean.
