Every woman wants to be first to someone sometime in her life and that desire is the explanation for many strange things women do.

There are no have-to's, just choices

To be a citizen in a democracy, a human being must be given a healthy start.

To handle yourself, use your head; to handle others, use your heart. Anger is only one letter short of danger. If someone betrays you once, it is his fault; if he betrays you twice, it is your fault. Great minds discuss ideas; average minds discuss events; small minds discuss people. He who loses money, loses much; he who loses a friend, loses much more; he who loses faith, loses all.

I am who I am today because of the choices I made yesterday.

To leave the world richer—that is the ultimate success.

Always be on time. Never try to make any personal engagements. Do as little talking as humanly possible. Never be disturbed by anything. Always do what you're told to do as quickly as possible. Remember to lean back in a parade, so that people can see your husband. Don't get too fat to ride three on a seat. Get out of the way as quickly as you're not needed.
