A shoe that fits one person pinches another.

Those who do not know how to see the precious things in life will never be happy.

I wrote poetry, journals, and, especially, plays for the neighborhood kids to perform. I had an ordinary, happy childhood. Nothing much was going on, but I had fun.

That's what true love should be like-the person should be part of your soul and you should know what they're feeling all the time.

Maybe we judge people too much by their looks because it's easier than seeing what's really important.

I am a princess. I do not follow fashions--I make them.

Since I've written many of my books from a less-than-sympathetic viewpoint, I think that being able to see things from all sides is a useful talent.
