children inspiration opportunity
Working with children with autism has provided me with an opportunity to see the world in a different way. I see them strive to overcome obstacles and persevere, and learn to persevere myself. They are my inspiration.
children thinking one-day
I kind of had my life planned out for me. I'd be married at some point, have, you know, 1.5 children, and be a principal possibly one day. But I think that that was kind of my problem. I allowed myself to plan out my life and didn't let provident direction guide my life.
art children together
I never want to produce anything that a family could not enjoy together. I never want to create art that would embarrass my own children later.
children acceptance people
In my ideal world, no child would suffer. Charitable instincts would prevail. There would be global acceptance of all different types of people.

UNICEF is working for the survival of children worldwide. What can we do to get more Americans committed to the cause?

She's excellent. It's really great to have somebody, we see eye to eye, ear to ear, I guess, on a lot of the stuff that we both like. She helps me figure out how to slow down and that we make sure that this next album is as good as it can be.
feeling mostly
I have a feeling they are probably mostly ladies,
access american-musician education kids million
There are 120 million kids in the world right now who don't go to school. Who have no education - who have no access to education.
bad fail felt high level power rarely respect room spanish talked teacher teachers trouble
I had a Spanish teacher in high school. I rarely got in trouble in her room because I felt I was disappointing her if I got a bad grade. That had more power over me than teachers who told me I talked too much. That level of respect I had for her made me not want to fail for her.
