I found that the body, mind and spirit are all connected. They are not separate pieces.

There are two things that I put my focus on. One is the fight against AIDS and finding a cure. The other is human rights.

You know, gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender - people are people.

I wish we lived in a society that made it safe and provided the courage for everyone to come out.

I loved my role on Who's the Boss? There is always some of me in every character that I play.

My weight went up and down like a yo-yo.

You have to find the peace and patience within yourself to be a model and an example to others and not judge.

We all have our own closets to come out of.

To me, celebrity doesn't mean a whole lot unless you're willing to use it. So I wanted to use it in a different way, with my AIDS work, the human rights stuff for the gay and lesbian community and the speaking I do.

If you want to be a star, don't bother doing it because it ends up being very empty.

You really have to listen to yourself and know if what someone is saying is true for you.

It frustrates me about myself when I see I'm not taking the road that demands more of me.

But celebrity really doesn't mean anything unless you use it for finding some way to give back and I've always felt that way.

Women don't realize how powerful they are.

The gay community just recognizes what their closets are and we straight have to spend years trying to figure out which closet we are trapped in.

I couldn't care less if someone is gay or straight.

I love being able to make people laugh.

When I became of service to other people I stopped worrying about my weight so much.

It makes me so angry - there's enough food in the world but people are starving. It's all political.

People can only do what they are ready to do when they are ready to do it.

I've always felt that celebrity was wonderful for a lot of the perks that it could give you.

Exactly Straight women who surround themselves only with gay men or white people who refuse any other race into their circles are unhealthy and it has more to do with one's individual fear and individual closets.

I know what it feels like to be an outsider.

The more we can purge ourselves of the diseases we create the more we can become magnificent people.

I was different and people made fun of me.

I got into theatre very early, so yes I was surrounded by gay people quite early and frequently.

Bigotry or prejudice in any form is more than a problem; it is a deep-seated evil within our society.

The message of transformation and how we all can live from our heart, not just from our head, was a very important message for me to learn in my own life.

Yet I've discovered that how I look is not a function of anything as ephemeral as my hair.

Somewhere we turn ourselves into victims instead of being the powerful women we really are meant to be.

I learned so much from Tony Danza I learned so much about myself.

I found that the body, mind and spirit are all connected. They are not separate pieces.

Bigotry or prejudice in any form is more than a problem it is a deep seated evil within our society.

You know gay lesbian bisexual transgender people are people.

The more we can purge ourselves of these diseases we create, the more we can become magnificent people.

A man must be strong in that profession, he must have vigor of body and mind, yet I am all out of breath if I walk up a hill; I have not the heart to crush even a fly.

After the first miscarriage, I tried to take the attitude that it was my body's way of telling me that this pregnancy wasn't meant to be.

I think I had a more European outlook about the body and sex. The body is in no way dirty, and sex is something beautiful to give to and share with a lover. It has nothing to do with promiscuity, because I only believe in being in love with one man at a time.

The student body was huge at UT and you had to mature pretty quick, very quick actually. I enjoyed it and it helped me a lot in my life in general - not only in the classroom but on the baseball field as well.

I love the male body, it's better designed than the male mind.

Periods of wholesome laziness, after days of energetic effort, will wonderfully tone up the mind and body.

Keep your blood clean, your body lean, and your mind sharp.

I did as much research as I could and I took ownership of this illness, because if you don't take care of your body, where are you going to live?

I think the human body is beautiful, and I don't really have a huge problem in dealing with it, but it's the context, the environment and what I feel about it that that makes the difference for me.

A great thing happening now in art is that artists are using the figure, the body, clothing, life.

Common sense should tell us that there is no reason for civilians to have access to easily concealable handguns with the capability to shoot through body armor.

The civilizing process has increased the distance between behavior and the impulse life of the animal body.

Well, the years from 10 to 20, when your body, mind and everything is like changing every five minutes, can be pretty torturing. And most of the interesting characters, I think, are somewhat tortured or torturous. I'm 20 now, so I'm only just an adult.

If you read quickly to get through a poem to what it means, you have missed the body of the poem.
