I was a victim; I don't dwell on it.

Love is definitely a foundation, a spiritual connection that makes peace. Also it is the change in the world. People don't get so hung up on it any more as they used to. They feel that it can be secondary in some instances.

I believe that if you'll just stand up and go, life will open up for you.

On board the new Ironsides, I had the Marine guard stationed at the after gun, thirty-five in number, and I think it was conceded that no gun of that heavy battery was worked more efficiently than the "Marine gun" as it was called.

I've never bothered about my color.

If you take care of yourself, 60 is nothing for women these days. In today's world you can be the kind of woman you want to be. Of course, I've aged a bit in the face, but not enough to worry about it. I've common sense enough to know that if I'm nearly 70 something has to give.

I don't like to dwell on the past.
