“Yesterday I was only Elizabeth; To-day I am a wonder to myself and a strange glory, I am the woman that he loves... I should not be more unlike the live woman he sees, Than is my image in the glass; There is no glass that can show me My likeness in his mind. Yet, because I am beautiful to him, I have become beautiful to myself; I love the white face he praised, And the mouth he kissed; I am a wonder to myself, And a strange glory.”

“Life is short, Break the Rules. Forgive quickly, Kiss slowly. Love truly. Laugh uncontrollably And never regret ANYTHING That makes you smile.”

“No one is born hating another person because of the color of his skin, or his background, or his religion. People must learn to hate, and if they can learn to hate, they can be taught to love, for love comes more naturally to the human heart than its opposite.”

“All love is vanquished by a succeeding love.”

“Failure is simply the opportunity to begin again, this time more intelligently.”

“Time you enjoy wasting, was not wasted.”
