You can’t move ahead until you bury the past.

Life, a good life, a great life is about "Why not?" May we never forget it.

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.

To be able to touch lives, and touch a life that you don't even know, is an extraordinary thing.

That is what touches me most. When somebody says: you really made a difference.

Feelings aren't sensible. Sometimes you fall in love with people who don't make sense. And the ones who do make sense turn out to be the wrong ones.

.. All you know is your parents telling you that you're not deserving, you're not worthy, and no one will ever want you. Believe me, tapes like that play so loud, you can't hear anything else. Even when it's clear otherwise.
