“Do what you please, follow your own star; be original if you want to be and don't if you don't want to be. Just be natural and light-hearted and pretty and simple and overflowing and general and baroque and bare and austere and stylized and wild and daring and conservative, and learn and learn and learn. Open your mind to every form of beauty.”

“Finally, when happiness came knocking on my door, I'd be waiting. I'd open the door and say: "Where have you been? What took you so long? And if you just give me a moment I'll pack and go with you.”

“You have to learn to follow your heart. You can’t let other people pressure you into being something that you’re not. If you want God’s favor in your life, you must be the person He made you to be, not the person your boss wants you to be, not even the person your parents or your husband wants you to be. You can’t let outside expectations keep you from following your own heart.”

“Learn the craft of knowing how to open your heart and to turn on your creativity. There’s a light inside of you.”

“Can the plural possessive express the feelings in your heart? If you don't learn art now, you will never learn to breathe!”

“After all, you couldn't expect any man to turn away from a beautiful woman with her ass in the air.”

“Dare to be what you are, and learn to resign with a good grace all that you are not and to believe in your own individuality.”
