"I must be myself. I cannot be anyone else."

"I don't have much in the way of money or worldly possessions, I'm not beautiful, intelligent or clever, but I'm happy, and I intend to stay that way!"

"Everyone has inside of him a piece of good news. The good news is that you don't know how great you can be! How much you can love! What you can accomplish! And what your potential is!"

"Who would ever think that so much can go on in the soul of a young girl?"

"Our lives are fashioned by our choices. First we make our choices, then our choices make us."
