It was a nice way to remember a child on Valentine's Day. These are children who have been removed from their homes, so it was extra special.
They really need to know much more about where the food comes from - how to grow it and cook it, how to make consumer choices that are good for the environment and the local economy.
They're pretty simple. They don't have a lot of fancy gingerbread details. Everything is straight and flat and usually one-story.
Being silent isn't being strong, it's being a victim.
We need to ditch the idea that there is any value in the strong and silent man being in any way attractive. Being silent isn't being strong, it's being a victim.
I didnt quit movies. They quit me.
Somehow it just don't seem fitting for a man to spend his wedding night in a tree.
I don't like being away from home. That's one reason why I don't work as much as I used to [when I started my career], because so many things are on the road. I just don't want to be away from my husband, my dogs and my home. I don't sing that much any more because that also takes you on the road.
We need to expect to pay a price if we want to make our lives better, but more importantly, we need to expect to pay a price for just leaving things as they are.
The greater the value of what we want, the greater the sacrifice we will have to make.
It's hard and continuous dedication that brings lasting results.

Never underestimate your talents, and try not to compare or wish for the talents of others. Focus on and accept the talents you have, and you will find great fulfillment in life.
Stop waiting for others to tell you what you can do. Start putting faith into your own strengths and talents. Instead of questioning whether you can reach your goals, move forward with conviction and confidence.
