I stopped believing in Santa Claus when I was six. Mother took me to see him in a department store and he asked for my autograph.

Big women do themselves a disservice when they attempt to become the Righteous Fat (the Righteous Thin are bad enough all that running around and sweating somehow believing it means anything).

My biggest challenge is trust and really believing that trust in letting things just happen personally and professionally and trust with myself. But I'm getting better at it.

We believe that what we possess we don't ultimately own. God is merely entrusting it to us. And one of the conditions of that trust is that we share what we have with those who have less. So if you don't give to people in need you can hardly call yourself a Jew. Even the most unbelieving Jew knows that.

To get a child's trust - you may know or not - is a very hard thing to do. They're so used to not believing adults - because adults tell tales and lies all the time.

I left because I could no longer make records that sounded less and less like me. I tried to please people instead of believing in my own strength until the only thing I could do was walk away.

I warn you against believing that advertising is a science.

What's sad is that there is an addictive quality to that to believing your own hype to allowing yourself to become validated by others and no longer by yourself. That's the danger of celebrity.

A tyrant must put on the appearance of uncommon devotion to religion. Subjects are less apprehensive of illegal treatment from a ruler whom they consider god-fearing and pious. On the other hand they do less easily move against him believing that he has the gods on his side.

The biggest mistake is believing there is one right way to listen to talk to have a conversation - or a relationship.

I don't know what I would have done without believing in God. His support gives me power and energy to continue to be optimistic to smile not to be depressed. Sometimes if things are not going so well I don't cry. I say maybe it's meant to be.

We all have our own life to pursue our own kind of dream to be weaving and we all have the power to make wishes come true as long as we keep believing.

Blessed be God that Thou hast filled the soul of Thy servant with joy and peace in believing.

Without peace and without the overwhelming majority of people that believe in peace defending it working for it believing in it security can never really be a reality.
