I feel that luck is preparation meeting opportunity.

If you feel incomplete, you alone must fill yourself with love in all your empty shattered spaces

I try to take every conflict, every experience, and learn from it

I'm starting to cry. I'm remembering those years I struggled with my weight, those times when I saw my reflection in a store window and didn't know who that fat person was, years when it was a big accomplishment for me to exercise at two dots on the StairMaster. And now I'm finishing a 26-mile race. Damn! This is better than winning an Emmy!

I for sure believe in miracles. For me, a miracle is seeing the world with light in your eyes. It's knowing there's always hope and possibility where none seems to exist. Many people are so closed to miracles that even when one is boldly staring them in the face, they label it coincidence or serendipity. I call it like I see it.

If you want to feel good, you have to go out and do some good.

I firmly believe that none of us in this world have made it until the least among us have made it.
