Things will get easier, people's minds will change, and you should be alive to see it.

You should never assume. You know what happens when you assume. You make an ass out of you and me because that's how it's spelled.

Life is short. If you doubt me, ask a butterfly. Their average life span is a mere five to fourteen days.

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.

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.

It's a little weird that I'm getting an award for being nice and generous and kind... which is what we're all supposed to do for one another. That's the point of being human. I think that kindness is an innate quality that we all have. We need to see more of it in the world. I want everyone to know that we all really, really love one another. Deep down, we all love one another. We need to get back to that. My wish is that we all try.

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

True beauty is not related to what color your hair is or what color your eyes are. True beauty is about who you are as a human being, your principles, your moral compass.

I enjoy growing older and wiser and learning from my mistakes every single day.
