My point is, life is about balance. The good and the bad. The highs and the lows. The pina and the colada.

Beauty is about being comfortable in your own skin. It's about knowing and accepting who you are.

Do things that make you happy within the confines of the legal system.

When you take risks you learn that there will be times when you succeed and there will be times when you fail, and both are equally important.

Accept who you are. Unless you're a serial killer.

It's failure that gives you the proper perspective on success.

The thing everyone should realize is that the key to happiness is being happy for yourself and yourself.

I personally like being unique. I like being my own person with my own style and my own opinions and my own toothbrush.

Emote. It's okay. It shows you are thinking and feeling.

It makes a big difference in your life when you stay positive.

Above all things physical, it is more important to be beautiful on the inside - to have a big hear and an open mind and a spectacular spleen.

All human beings have three lives: public, private, and secret.

Your fate lies in your hands.

Tis no shame to follow the better precedent.

If you remember the creation (gossip about such and such a person), then remember Allah the Most High. Remembering Him is the medicine for remembering His creation.

My brother says that I was writing songs about fate while he was off playing soccer. Now I tell him he's 33 and being a professional while I'm playing soccer with my friends. Ha!

Great things only come with great effort.

Imagination is the primary gift of human consciousness.

I always have some way of putting the stories together that works for the book. I've always switched points of view in my books. I'm a Gemini.

I have always said that your work stays with you for a long time, and I try to get involved in projects where I truly believe if I had to do them again, I would the same way.

Great players never look in the mirror and think I'm a great basketball player. You ask yourself, Am I the best player I can be?
