Instant gratification is not soon enough.

I like who I am now. Other people may not. I'm comfortable. I feel freer now. I don't want growing older to matter to me.

I have a very good life - I'm lucky enough not to be deprived.

We are who we're going to be when we're very old, and when we're very old we are who we were when we were 8.

Tonight we light these candles to honor the value and the work of Jyoti Singh's short, promising life, she was India's daughter. Tonight she's our daughter too.

My mother was someone that walked into a room and lit it up. She made friends easily and she communicated her enthusiasms with great joy. I always wanted to be more like my mother than I am. I loved and admired her very deeply.

The work will stand, no matter what.
