I'm very, very sensitive to pain and to people who suffer.

You can't cure a chipped plate. All you can do is live with it or throw it out.

If everybody, every day, would try to do one thing that pulls them beyond themselves the world will start being a better place.

rain slowly slides down the glass as if the night is crying.

Night fell clean and cold in Dublin, and wind moaned beyond my room as if a million pipes played the air.

In my forties, my optimism was boundless. I had really good health and tremendous success which allowed me to do anything I wanted.

I won't put myself in a position where I'm vulnerable.
