My life has been one great big joke, a dance that's walked a song that's spoke, I laugh so hard I almost choke when I think about myself.

You build your 'COURAGE MUSCLE' daily, by being courageous in little things. Just do right.

My great hope is to laugh as much as I cry; to get my work done and try to love somebody and have the courage to accept the love in return.

Loving someone liberates the lover as well as the beloved. And that kind of love comes with age.

Women should be tough, tender, laugh as much as possible, and live long lives. The struggle for equality continues unabated, and the woman warrior who is armed with wit and courage will be among the first to celebrate victory.

Life loves to be taken by the lapel and told: 'I'm with you kid. Let's go.'

Try, start always at home. This is my encouragement to all writers, start at home. All virtues and vices begin at home, and then spread abroad.
