Keep away from people who try to belittle your ambitions. Small people always do that, but the really great make you feel that you, too, can become great.

Do ordinary things with extraordinary love.

Forgive but don't forget, girl keep your head up. And when he tells you you ain't nothing, don't believe him. And if he can't learn to love you, you should leave him.

Be an individual, work hard, study, get your mind straight, and trust nobody.

Every day brings a chance to live free of regret and with as much joy, fun, and laughter as you can stand.

I'm looking forward to influencing others in a positive way. My message is you can do anything if you just put your mind to it.
