Personally, I think tying garbage bags around your head and hands is overkill.

Usually, jet lag is not this big of an issue for me. I'm not sure why I'm so disoriented this time. It could be due to the amount of chocolate and french fries I've eaten in the last two and a half weeks.

I can wholeheartedly apologize for not being at all sorry. And it really is the least I can do.

Let's stop playing with ourselves and get on with the entertainment, shall we?

The theme of the party was Neverland Ranch, so guests were asked to come as anyone or anything associated with Michael Jackson. It was all very disturbing.

Orphans, dead parents, lonely children at Christmas, morose spoken word recordings, everything you love about the holidays. Move the turkey over so you can fit your head in the oven.

Like every aspect of cancer I've weathered thus far, today's experience was not at all demoralizing, expensive or humiliating. No, it was just plain fun.

I always like to get local music when I'm in another country.

I wish you a tolerable Thursday. That's all any of us can hope for.

I have found that many other countries will buy off on anything American. As much as they hate us, they want to be us more than anything.

Personally, I think tying garbage bags around your head and hands is overkill.

My bedspread isn't washable. Since my bedding has to be washed every day, I'll have to throw it out.

I remember lying down for a nap one day at about 4:00 and walking up at 11:00 the next morning.

I had a migraine for about seven or eight straight days, and I was unable to sleep most nights.

I'd like to run for office someday, but I'm afraid my ability to spell might give me an unfair advantage.

I never have anything to talk about.

I had glow in the dark bands made up and I've given away a ton of them.

I know you aren't supposed to speak ill of the dead.

I am severely distracted these days. It's hard to sit in front of the computer, uploading bad music for hours, when you have a wonderful boyfriend who treats you like a Goddess.

We have only today. Let us begin.

If everybody became a poet the world would be much better. We would all read to each other.

Gooseberries should be mainstream berries! Why are chemically fattened strawberries a thing? Why not the delicious gooseberry?

I love Canada, always.

One reason so few of us achieve what we truly want is that we never direct our focus we never concentrate our power. Most people dabble their way through life never deciding to master anything in particular.

Theology always has moral implications, and morality is always undergirded by theology.

My pain may be the reason for somebody's laugh. But my laugh must never be the reason for somebody's pain.

Nero may have understood how to tune his cithern, but he disgraced his imperial office both by slackening and by tightening the strings.

I've changed my will to show my concern for animal rights.

A mans face is his autobiography. A womans face is her work of fiction.

I like to use the hard times of the past to motivate me today.

Theres been a decline in the double standard. Thats why youre seeing more of these cases.

One man's holy is another woman's sublime.

Caregiving requires the intention of love, caretaking requires the intention of fear. Not acting in anger when you are angry requires the intention of love.

All the worlds a stage.

I really like even numbers, and I like heavily divisible numbers. Twelve is my lucky number - I just love how divisible it is. I don't like odd numbers, and I really don't like primes. When I turned 37, I put on a strong face, but I was not looking forward to 37. But 37 turned out to be a pretty amazing year.

Detachment is not about refusing to feel or not caring or turning away from those you love. Detachment is profoundly honest grounded firmly in the truth of what is.

All facades fall sometime then the mask comes off and the real heart is seen.

I wanted to do it my way with my career, and I had this arrogant notion that people weren't just interested in my music but me as a person. That was my bit of arrogance, I guess. That's something I learned from Madonna. I was a fan right from the first time I heard 'Holiday.'

How did you fall in love with New Orleans? At once, madly. Looking back, sometimes I think it was predestined.

I'm learning to accept the lack of privacy as the real downer in my profession.

I'm very thankful to the Yankees and to Major League Baseball for allowing me to play this game.

Death was like love, a romantic escape.

When I was 17, I taught music; I had 65 students a week, and I did that for a year. So that's pretty regular. But it was great to give the gift of music to people, seeing them learn. It's great to influence young people in a creative way.
