I would like to be known as an intelligent woman$$$ a courageous woman$$$ a loving woman$$$ a woman who teaches by being.

Children's talent to endure stems from their ignorance of alternatives.

The main thing in one's own private world is to try to laugh as much as you cry.

My life has been one great big joke$$$ a dance that's walked$$$ a song that's spoke. I laugh so hard I almost choke$$$ when I think about myself.

Nothing can dim the light which shines from within.

Everything in the universe has a rhythm$$$ everything dances.

Success is liking yourself$$$ liking what you do$$$ and liking how you do it.

In the Gulag$$$ it was not the case that people died like flies. Rather$$$ flies died like people.

Fair and softly goes far.

It is simply service that measures success.
