I don't think I'm tough in a so called tough way. I'm tough on myself.

Just like my father, I've always loved education. In school I was a member of the honor society.

I love road trips! My husband and I love that. We bought a truck with a bench seat so we could put the dog in the middle.

A human being is only interesting if he's in contact with himself. I learned you have to trust yourself, be what you are, and do what you ought to do the way you should do it. You have got to discover you, what you do, and trust it.

Just imagine how boring life would be if we were all the same. My idea of a perfect world is one in which we really appreciated each other's differences: Short, tall; Democrat, Republican; black, white; gay, straight-a world in which all of us are equal, but definitely not the same.

I knew that with a mouth like mine, I just hadda be a star or something.

Love comes from the most unexpected places.
