Becoming a parent has just completely changed me, and made life so beautiful and given me such a center and a focus and such joy.

All of us would like to believe that if we were in a bad situation someone would help us.

I just started reading lots of books and then called the United Nations and asked if they could educate me. The more I got involved, the more I suddenly began to feel useful as a human being and felt like I was finally living as I should be.

People say that you're going the wrong way when it's simply a way of your own.

It's the greatest thing that ever happened in my life, my son.

If you become aware of a public self, you're in danger of becoming a very artificial person.

I would start drinking something terrible if I were in a situation where I was surrounded by lies or quiet or secrets. It's just not a real life.
