I love soccer.

My music - that's the one area I won't let myself be pushed around. But in other parts of my life, I'm a confused mess.

The spotlight will always be on me, but it's something I'm learning to live with as the years go by.

No individual is alone responsible for a single stepping stone along the path of progress, and where the path is smooth progress is most rapid.

I always watch what I say. I am what I say.

We should love the body insofar as it is obedient and helpful to the soul, since the soul, with the body's help and service, is better disposed for the service and praise of our Creator and Lord.

Each organism's environment, for the most part, consists of other organisms.

I've been so fortunate in that people respond to what I do.

I was always talking in weird voices from the time I was two. I guess I just found a way to keep doing it! I did get a degree in theater and took some voice-over classes... but most of it is just the same stuff I was doing as a kid!

My mum is great for keeping hold of old classics - pieces of clothing that never age and never go out of fashion.

I find myself very drawn to the experience of church. I love to be in a surrounding that's so welcoming. People come shake your hand. That's not always the case in most synagogues I've been in. I also find more of an emphasis on how to live and grow as a person. And I have to say, I'm very inspired by Jesus.

There's a famous slogan here in the Bavarian dialect, and we use it inside Bayern Munich. We say, 'Mia san mia.' Literally, it is, 'We are we,' but it means, 'We are who we are.' That's not being very arrogant, but we are very confident about our ability to win the game. It is about a winning mentality.

Although I believe that scripture is divinely inspired and infallible, I have a hard time going along with the belief that the whole creation process occurred in six twenty-four hour days.

Part of the redesign of FEMA is that they have so many people on standby, whether it is a retired nurse or a doctor who will take time off to go exactly where they are needed.

I will always have a stutter.

Whatever you believe to be true, whether it is true or not; if you believe it, then to you it becomes the truth.

I don't think my judgment is that good. I don't know what is funny.

I'm so proud to be a Latina. Growing up and being Latina and growing up with my father and getting to do a lot of the Hispanic traditions, I loved it.

I've been asked, 'What was your big break?' I don't feel like I've had a big break. It's been a slow, slow break.

It's not my job to get really personal in how I express myself. I've met fans, and they've been lovely. But letting my personal life out there, I don't think is a good idea for me. I think the more you do that, the more you can be accused of encouraging that kind of attention.

Throughout my life, I have grappled with my own identity, who I am. As a young child, I often felt ambivalent about myself, in fact, confused.

Some people are born for the city. I'm not one of them.

Never offend people with style when you can offend them with substance.

I think it must be awful not to work. My only point in being idle is to rest so that I can work more... I'm only unhappy when I'm not working.
