My problem is that people have been writing books about me.A lot of things that people write about you are incorrect, but you don't fight about it.

You can't just sit there and wait for people to give you that golden dream. You've got to get out there and make it happen for yourself.

Instead of looking at the past, I put myself ahead twenty years and try to look at what I need to do now in order to get there then.

I really, deeply believe that dreams do come true. Often, they might not come when you want them. They come in their own time.

Take a little time out of your busy day to give encouragement to someone who's lost their way.

Most people are so hard to please that if they met God, they'd probably say yes, she's great, but.

You know, you do need mentors, but in the end, you really just need to believe in yourself.

It takes a long time to get to be a diva. I mean, you gotta work at it.

My travels led me to where I am today. Sometimes these steps have felt painful, difficult, but led me to greater happiness and opportunities.

I can be a better me than anyone can.

If I have someone who believes in me, I can move mountains.

The map is not the territory (coined by Alfred Korzybski), and the name is not the thing named.

I like to get in among a set of people and get to know them very well.

Our times demand rejection of seven word bios.

I seem to be attracted to the quiet, brooding type. But not too brooding. Too brooding can be narcissistic. Or psychotic.

For Democrats, nothing is any less complex than a 'West Wing' episode.

I'm not saying I'm number 1, oh sorry I lied.. I'm number 1,2,3,4 and 5

Relatively few people have the resources needed to resist authority.

I like myself better when I'm writing regularly.

There is a treasure in the heart of every man if you can only find it
