Ralph Waldo Emerson

The martyr cannot be dishonored. Every lash inflicted is a tongue of fame; every prison a more illustrious abode.

Everything in Nature contains all the powers of Nature. Everything is made of one hidden stuff.

What lies behind you and what lies in front of you, pales in comparison to what lies inside of you.

I've always been very determined, ever since I was a little girl, to make my way.

I've conducted an experiment on my kids. Instead of denying them access to media, I've encouraged it. They read comic books, play Nintendo and watch way too much TV.

If you're not having a good time, find something else that gives you some joy in life.
