I'm like a plant, I reach for the sun.

In my career I have never felt that my being a woman was an obstacle or an advantage. I guess I've been oblivious.

That's one of the things I love about being a songwriter first, last and always, because whether I do it or not, if someone does a great job on it, my work is done.

My life has been a tapestry of rich and royal hue, an everlasting vision of the ever changing view.

You're beautiful as you feel.

I didn't want to be an artist.

I still believe that everyone is beautiful in some way and by seeing the beauty in others we make ourselves more beautiful.
