I speak for those children who cannot speak for themselves, children who have absolutely nothing but their courage and their smiles, their wits and their dreams.
Nothing is impossible, the word itself says 'I'm possible'!
When you have nobody you can make a cup of tea for, when nobody needs you, that's when I think life is over.
Success is like reaching an important birthday and finding you're exactly the same.
Why change? Everyone has his own style. When you have found it, you should stick to it.
I have no illusions about my looks. I think my face is funny.
How shall I sum up my life? I think I've been particularly lucky. Does that have something to do with faith also? I know my mother always used to say, 'Good things aren't supposed to just fall in your lap. God is very generous, but he expects you to do your part first.' So you have to make that effort. But at the end of a bad time or a huge effort, I've always had - how shall I say it? - the prize at the end. My whole life shows that.
You go back. You search for what made you happy when you were smaller. We are all grown up children, really... So one should go back and search for what was loved and found to be real.
I lack self-confidence. I don't know whether I shall ever get it. Perhaps it is better to be unsure of your self, as I am. But it is very tiring.
I'm half-Irish, half-Dutch, and I was born in Belgium. If I was a dog, I'd be in a hell of a mess!
For me the only things of interests are those linked to the heart
...walk with the knowledge that you are never alone.
Always be a first-rate version of yourself.
Ive had my share of difficult moments, but whatever difficulties Ive gone through, Ive always gotten a prize at the end.
