It's fulfilling being able to do this kind of television. And I believe continuing to have a voice and a platform to speak to the world is still the right thing to do.
It's easy to let Oprah do it for them.
It's been a secret dream of mine to be part of Broadway, ... I hope to be able to do for this production some of what I've been able to do for books - that is, to open the door to the possibilities for a world of people who have never been or even thought of going to a Broadway show.
After this trip I know these kids went home with happy memories to last a life time.
I hope... to open the door to the possibilities for a world of people who have never been or even thought of going to a Broadway show.
I hope you know how much I loved your mother.
No, ma'am, I would not, ... is the best forum in the world. I think all the senators wish they had that for themselves.
No, the lie of it. That's a lie. It's not an idea, James, that's a lie.
I wanted to open the door and broaden the field, ... That allows me the opportunity to do what I like to do most, which is sit and talk to authors about their work. It's kind of hard to do that when they're dead.
It's not a classic and it is also not fiction but a bold choice ... it's a gut-wrenching memoir.
At the roll call of your life, at the end of your life, what really matters is who did you love and who did you offer love to.
Dont back down just to keep the peace. Standing up for your beliefs builds self-confidence and self-esteem.
You hear that someone didn't get to shop at a certain store, ... and you go, 'Is that really the worst thing that's happened to you? Can't you just go back tomorrow ?' It's one of those things - I could never have a meltdown.
Together with my friends, we look forward to creating programming that will entertain, inform and inspire our listening audience on XM.
