We need Joy as we need air. We need Love as we need water. We need each other as we need the earth we share.

All my work, my life, everything I do is about survival, not just bare, awful, plodding survival, but survival with grace and faith. While one may encounter many defeats, one must not be defeated.

Let me tell so much truth. I want to tell the truth in my work. The truth will lead me to all.

A woman who is convinced that she deserves to accept only the best challenges herself to give the best. Then she is living phenomenally.

It is a no-fail, incontrovertible reality: If you get, give. If you learn, teach. You can't do anything with that except do it.

I think I know that I deserve better. And so I try for better. I'm never so put off that I would ever walk out of a place not having tried the best I could.

I have heard it said that winter, too, will pass, that spring is a sign that summer is due at last. See, all we have to do is hang on.
