I sacrifice in my love life and my social life but those things will be there in three or four years. This is a really important time in my life. I can't just be the girl who sang 'I Kissed a Girl.' I have to leave a legacy.

I think that everything is possible as long as you put your mind to it and you put the work and time into it. I think your mind really controls everything.

I really had no great love for shoes. I was a working First Lady I was always in canvas shoes. I did nurture the shoes industry of the Philippines and so every time there was a shoe fair I would receive a pair of shoes as a token of gratitude.

Sometimes overturning brutal regimes takes time and costs lives. I wish it weren't so. I really really do.

Nobody sees a flower really it is so small. We haven't time and to see takes time - like to have a friend takes time.

Really big people are above everything else courteous considerate and generous - not just to some people in some circumstances - but to everyone all the time.

I really wanted to retire and rest and spend more time with my children my grandchildren and of course with my wife.

The worst moment for the atheist is when he is really thankful and has nobody to thank.

I went from not knowing anything to becoming really curious and wanting to know and respecting people in the industry realizing how hard they work. I will always be thankful for 'Top Model' for that.

I'm really thankful and complimented when people come to me and say thank you for the great times for all these years. But I don't think about it as being a leader.

I'm really thankful to God man. Like now I'm really making a real comeback with my group. With or without a record with or without a movie. And behind all the negative press behind this movie.

There's a lot of women in the WNBA. There's a lot of women who could be here. To be voted by the fans says a lot - that people are aware of what's going on. I'm really thankful. I think they just really appreciate my talent so I'm definitely grateful.

I'm just really thankful to have the chance to portray a character you don't see every day.

I love going to Africa and stuff. I love going anywhere really but I've been to Africa a bunch of times and it's just a beautiful place that needs help obviously but helping people that are really thankful is really easy to do. And the people out there always seem so thankful.

I want to let my fans get to know a little about me. I'm very thankful for everything they've done for me so of course I'm going to let them into my world a bit. But I really am a very private person and I love kepping my life to myself - that's how I've always been.

Even now when I try and think of band names just randomly I'm so thankful that 'fun.' is the name of the band. I never really think twice about it. It is so simple and so easy.

If you are really thankful what do you do? You share.

We sing a little song before we eat a little blessing before we eat and it's really - we're thanking the Lord and the Earth for the food that we eat and it really brings you together in a profound kind of way.

I'm really looking forward to the Hall of Fame ceremonies. It's going to be unbelievable - just crazy. I'm looking forward to thanking all the fans for inspiring me to go out there and play my best football each and every game.

All I ever wanted really and continue to want out of life is to give 100 percent to whatever I'm doing and to be committed to whatever I'm doing and then let the results speak for themselves. Also to never take myself or people for granted and always be thankful and grateful to the people who helped me.

To be honest I haven't seen a lot of the current crop of teen movies because there's only so much time and there's nothing that really drives me to do it.

I really liked 'Starter For Ten' because I grew up watching 1980s teen films like 'St. Elmo's Fire' and 'The Breakfast Club' and I've always wanted to play the underdog lead hero in a 1980s-inspired film.

Being a teen can be tough. Just try to surround yourself with really good friends that really have your back and also be a really good friend to those who really care about you. If you're not sure about certain things talk to your friends that you trust and your family.

I have this sense that I didn't really start growing up until my twenties.
