I work very hard, and I play very hard. I'm grateful for life. And I live it - I believe life loves the liver of it. I live it.

I believe that each of us comes from the Creator trailing wisps of glory.

I was very blessed to have family and friends, but particularly family, who told me I was not only all right, I was just right, so I believe that my brain is a good one, and it's lasting me very well.

My life has been long, and believing that life loves the liver of it, I have dared to try many things, sometimes trembling, but daring still.

I do not believe in excuses. I believe in hard work as the prime solvent of life's problems.

Life loves to be taken by the lapel and told: 'I'm with you kid. Let's go.'
