I have no time for the endless nostalgia: 'Oh gosh I used to . . . ' Life is too short; I don't have any time for sitting and saying I miss things. What's the point? Go and do something else.

I sailed through my childhood with a complete lack of any drama.

Up until about 12 years ago we never, ever, wore flak jacket or helmets but now the nastiness has got worse.

In the final analysis, it is your decision to make, but it doesn't move as fast as I'd like it to move.

It took me realizing that a broken heart has never actually killed anyone to find the courage to ask for what I want, in just about every situation. That was part of my own growing up.
