You see much more of your children once they leave home.

It's a helluva start, being able to recognize what makes you happy.

My ideal of womanhood has always been the pioneer woman who fought and worked at her husband's side. She bore the children, kept the home fires burning; she was the hub of the family, the planner and the dreamer.

Ability is of little account without opportunity.

I am a real ham. I love an audience. I work better with an audience. I am dead, in fact, without one.

remember to recognize the small successes that you will have. Don't let the brightness of that big goal blind you to what happens on the way toward the goal. Meet one wave at a time and enjoy what progress you make. I want you please not to be taken up in the undertow of pessimism.

Love yourself first and everything falls into line.
