What I like to do is just make good music good movies hopefully perform a good show full of energy and just have some fun.

In the morning he was lying dead on one of the beds fully clothed. He was dead. I got the impression he wanted to go and I must have killed him. I can't remember strangling him. I just sat there shocked.

Well I get my subject on Wednesday night I think it out carefully on Thursday and make my rough sketch on Friday morning I begin and stick to it all day with my nose well down on the block.

I remember being at school during morning meeting and looking around at everybody 350 kids saying a prayer. We're all very young and no one knows what it means and I remember feeling strange that people were just repeating words that they didn't understand. I refused to participate. For some reason I always rejected it but respectfully.

There are 435 members of Congress. There's one 'Morning Joe' show. Hopefully we can keep hammering the argument that you can disagree with other people and have debates but remain civil.

It was morning through the high window I saw the pure bright blue of the sky as it hovered cheerfully over the long roofs of the neighboring houses. It too seemed full of joy as if it had special plans and had put on its finest clothes for the occasion.

People don't have fortunes left them in that style nowadays men have to work and women to marry for money. It's a dreadfully unjust world.

I wanted to have a personal life that I fully inhabited not because I am such a great mom but for me.

I want to make my music and be a happy woman a good wife a good mom and one day hopefully have a child of my own.

My mom is painfully sweet she's from Nebraska.

Thankfully I have my mom and a small group of close friends who are there for me 24/7 and whom I can trust and depend on.

My mother taught me to treat a lady respectfully.

A time will come when a politician who has willfully made war and promoted international dissension will be as sure of the dock and much surer of the noose than a private homicide. It is not reasonable that those who gamble with men's lives should not stake their own.

A man is ethical only when life as such is sacred to him that of plants and animals as that of his fellow men and when he devotes himself helpfully to all life that is in need of help.

Men never do evil so completely and cheerfully as when they do it from religious conviction.

Men have to do some awfully mean things to keep up their respectability.

Like all young men I set out to be a genius but mercifully laughter intervened.

There are three subjects on which the knowledge of the medical profession in general is woefully weak they are manners morals and medicine.

I believe it should be possible for someone stricken with a serious and ultimately fatal illness to choose to die peacefully with medical help rather than suffer.

I think there is a generation gap. I personally look forward to as our generation becomes the leaders you are gonna see a change and I think hopefully gay marriage will be a part of that country.

I did know Ted Hughes and I partly wrote the book to explain to myself and others the complexities of a marriage that was for six years wonderfully productive of poetry and then ended in tragedy.

Marriage is an institution and you must be fully committed to it.

Men go into marriage with virtually no expectations whatsoever. Ten years later the men are delightfully surprised to find out that it's actually kind of nice and the women have sort of had to take a nose dive from what they thought it was going to be.

Being divorced is like being hit by a Mack truck. If you live through it you start looking very carefully to the right and to the left.
