You have only one life, make the most of it.

I was 22 when JFK was murdered, and I will never recover from it... Never..

Finally there is nothing here for death to take away..

I always thought that I was me — but no, I was you and never knew it..

The older you get the more you understand what you're doing.

There is time in life for everything..

Don't count your boobies until they are hatched..

After a while you learn that everything stops..

No one's ever gotten better by practicing less..

I don't see myself as a diva at all..

I don't talk. I just let what I do talk for myself..

Allow yourself to see what you don’t allow yourself to see..

I didn't choose poetry: poetry chose me..

Aure entuluva! day shall come again!.

As much as you can in your life, say yes..

Where music leads, I follow..

Apply yourself wholly to the text; apply the text wholly to yourself..

Every day is a gift -- start unwrapping them..

I prefer true over happy now..

I don't have to be anybody I'm not..

Instead of using your thoughts, become your thoughts.
