So often people tell me: you got me through this, you've really helped me. And I never realized that part of what I do is that I give people hope.

At the moment, I'm enjoying John Grisham quite a bit.

.. that terrible feeling that you're not good enough to be loved by the people you love most, and eventually by anyone else.

I like summer. I like warmer weather and long days. I'm one of those silly people who still enjoy lying in the sun - my children are horrified!

It's hard being visible, so I've made myself invisible.

What intrigues me is the difference in how women experience power, and how men do.

You could never predict what would happen. There was an element of destiny in everything that one could never account for.
