It is a weakness that I lead from my heart, and not my head?

If I am to care for people in hospital I really must know every aspect of their treatment and to understand their suffering.

Perhaps we're too embarrassed to change or too frightened of the consequences of showing that we actually care. But why not risk it anyway? Begin today. Carry out a random act of seemingly senseless kindness, with no expectation of reward or punishment, safe in the knowledge that one day, someone somewhere might do the same for you.

I knew what my job was; it was to go out and meet the people and love them.

I was compelled to perform. When I say perform, I was compelled to go out and do my engagements and not let people down and support them and love them. In a way, by being out in public, they supported me although they weren't aware of just how much healing they were giving me. It carried me through.

I decline to go fox hunting (nor did she want her sons William and Harry to be involved in hunting).

One day I'm going to go up in a helicopter and it'll just blow up. MI5 will do away with me
