Because of being married, I've met people and experienced all these little things that have nurtured my life - not so much changed it, just nurtured it in a way that's astounding.

I'm tall and smart. If you're aggressive and energetic it can be intimidating for people who aren't very smart themselves.

A fever is an expression of inner rage.

The older you get, the more fragile you understand life to be. I think that's good motivation for getting out of bed joyfully each day.

The babies are amazing ... They begin each day all warm and sleepy, smelling of promise.

I don't get angry very often. I lose my temper rarely. And when I do, there's always a legitimate cause. Normally I have a great lightness of being. I take things in a very happy, amused way.

I could have been a dental hygienist with nothing bad ever appearing in print about me, but that's not how I've chosen to lead my life. I knew that you put yourself under a microscope the more famous you become.
