Most women would not be happy being me. People say, ‘But you’re alone.’ But I don’t feel alone. I feel very un-alone.

I hope you find a love. Your own designs of love.

Being able to take care of myself is something that my mom really instilled in me.

I’m really an old-fashioned girl, and I think I’m totally sexy.

I believe I was definitely sent down here to take people away for a little while, to make them happy.

Little girls think it’s necessary to put all their business on MySpace and Facebook, and I think it’s a shame… I’m all about mystery.

We find delight in the beauty and happiness of children that makes the heart too big for the body.

Laws control the lesser man… Right conduct controls the greater one.

The genius, wit, and the spirit of a nation are discovered by their proverbs.

Take care to get what you like or you will be forced to like what you get.

He that hath wife and children hath given hostages to fortune; for they are impediments to great enterprises, either of virtue or mischief.

Ahh, that mountain of self-discovery. Every time you have reached the summit, the clouds clear and you see there is still a ways to go. Don’t look up with thoughts of despair; thinking how much further do I have to go?! Take a moment and look back to see how far you have come. Don’t lose sight of your accomplishments, and focus on the continued commitment to self-discovery and development.

We must be our own before we can be another’s.

How pleasant it is for a father to sit at his child’s board. It is like an aged man reclining under the shadow of an oak which he has planted.

Fatigue makes cowards of us all.

It is the nature of babies to be in bliss.

At the end of my life, with just one breath left, if you come, I’ll sit up and sing.

The more you know, the less you need.

In your Salvation shelter I saw poverty, misery, cold and hunger. You gave them bread and treacle and dreams of heaven. I give from thirty shillings a week to twelve thousand a year. They find their own dreams; but I look after the drainage.

What lies behind you and what lies in front of you, pales in comparison to what lies inside of you.

The secret of being miserable is to have leisure to bother about whether you are happy or not. The cure for it is occupation.
