Lord keep Your arm around my shoulder and Your hand over my mouth.

If you have done the best you can do and if you have gotten all you could extract from something, you have given all you had to give, then the time has come when you can do no more than say thank you and move on.

I'm a feminist. I've been a female for a long time now. It'd be stupid not to be on my own side.

Most plain girls are virtuous because of the scarcity of opportunity to be otherwise.

Those who have something to say accept the fact that that's lonely. One already knows that there will be adversaries.

You may shoot me with your words, you may cut me with your eyes, you may kill me with your hatefulness, but still, like air, I'll rise!

If I'm here, I'll be trying to be a better human being, a better writer, a better friend and a better beloved.
