I don't know about Heaven or Hell, but I do know that we are visited all the time by the spirits of those who affected us in life.

I think we hear a lot of talk about college, and we don't hear about early education.

Ends are for yesterday, not tomorrows.

You're not going to get to college - you're not even going to be qualified, even to go to a community college, if you don't address the basic problem of literacy in America. And there's no reason - no reason - for us to have that problem.

I asked myself, 'Am I going to withdraw from the world, like most people do, or am I going to live?' I decided I am going to live - or at least try to live - the way I want, with dignity, with courage, with humor, with composure.

There is no formula to relationships. They have to be negotiated in loving ways, with room for both parties, what they want and what they need, what they can do and what their life is like.

We're Tuesday people.
