Jealousy is the grave of affection.

There is no racial or ethnic involvement in Thanksgiving, and people who may be very distant from the Christian system can see the beauty and the positive spirit that comes from the holiday.

A smart man makes a mistake, learns from it, and never makes that mistake again. But a wise man finds a smart man and learns from him how to avoid the mistake altogether.

Everyone has highs and lows that they have to learn from, but every morning I start off with a good head on my shoulders, saying to myself, 'It's going to be a good day!'.

From heresy, frenzy and jealousy, good Lord deliver me.

My fondest memories are generally the day after Thanksgiving. I get the total decorating Christmas itch.

New Year's Day. A fresh start. A new chapter in life waiting to be written. New questions to be asked, embraced, and loved. Answers to be discovered and then lived in this transformative year of delight and self-discovery. Today carve out a quiet interlude for yourself in which to dream, pen in hand. Only dreams give birth to change.

My New Year's Resolution List usually starts with the desire to lose between ten and three thousand pounds.

Rank does not confer privilege or give power. It imposes responsibility.

Our work is the presentation of our capabilities.

I hope that in this year to come, you make mistakes. Because if you are making mistakes, then you are making new things, trying new things, learning, living, pushing yourself, changing yourself, changing your world. You're doing things you've never done before, and more importantly, you're doing something.

Friendship is two-sided. It isn't a friend just because someone's doing something nice for you. That's a nice person. There's friendship when you do for each other. It's like marriage - it's two-sided.

My father always used to say that when you die, if you've got five real friends, then you've had a great life.

Part of the secret of a success in life is to eat what you like and let the food fight it out inside.

Honor lies in honest toil.

Happiness depends upon ourselves.

Dad taught me everything I know. Unfortunately, he didn't teach me everything he knows.

People are taken aback by a confident, pretty girl who knows what she wants in life and isn't going to let anyone get in her way. And you know what it's all about? Jealousy.

I think long-lasting, healthy relationships are more important than the idea of marriage. At the root of every successful marriage is a strong partnership.

A woman should never be seen eating or drinking, unless it be lobster salad and Champagne, the only true feminine and becoming viands.

In a way, fraud in business is no different from infidelity in marriage or plagiarism in scholarly work. Even people committed to high moral standards succumb.

Physical strength can never permanently withstand the impact of spiritual force.

Accept what people offer. Drink their milkshakes. Take their love.

The final forming of a person's character lies in their own hands.
