Each piece of jewellery tells a story of my life. Picking one particular piece as a favorite would be like taking a chapter out of a book.
In my life, I was always floating around the edge of the dark side and saying what if take it a little bit too far, and who says you have to stop there, and what’s behind the next door. Maybe you gain a wisdom from examining those things. But after a while, you get too far down in the quicksand.
I worked hard all my life as far as this music business. I dreamed of the day when I could go to New York and feel comfortable and they could come out here and be comfortable.
The people that matter to me the most are the people that are in my life. That’s who I really learn from, and it’s always a very personal kind of connection.
I’ve cried, and you’d think I’d be better for it, but the sadness just sleeps, and it stays in my spine the rest of my life.
Depression is something I’ve dealt with every day of my life.
I’d rather give my life than be afraid to give it.
If my life is of no value to my friends it is of none to myself.
When I look back over my life it’s almost as if there was a plan laid out for me – from the little girl who was so passionate about animals who longed to go to Africa and whose family couldn’t afford to put her through college. Everyone laughed at my dreams. I was supposed to be a secretary in Bournemouth.
Since I was a kid, music has been a huge part of my life. My parents had a pretty solid vinyl collection and exposed me to some amazing artists.
The more simple my life is, the happier I am.
I went to Ithaca, found the Grateful Dead and my life was changed.
I don’t smoke. I don’t drink. I don’t use drugs. That may be boring for some people, but that’s just me. That’s how I live my life.
I have amazing people around me. I couldn’t be in a better place. I’m grateful for my life and where I’m at. I never thought I could be in the position that I’m in.
If you are asking did I support the Soviet Union, yes I did. Yes, I did support the Soviet Union, and I think the disappearance of the Soviet Union is the biggest catastrophe of my life.
Music is love, love is music, music is life, and I love my life. Thank you and good night.
How can they say my life is not a success? Have I not for more than sixty years got enough to eat and escaped being eaten?
Throughout my life, I’ve always been really close with girls and made friends with girls. And I’ve always been a really sickly, feminine person anyhow, so I thought I was gay for a while because I didn’t find any of the girls in my high school attractive at all.
Why am I so soft in the middle when the rest of my life is so hard?
Your subconscious mind is trying to help you all the time. That’s why I keep a journal – not for chatter but for mostly the images that flow into the mind or little ideas. I keep a running journal, and I have all of my life, so it’s like your gold mine when you start writing.
No, I wouldn’t want the paparazzi ever following me in my life.
We’ve become, now, an oligarchy instead of a democracy. I think that’s been the worst damage to the basic moral and ethical standards to the American political system that I’ve ever seen in my life.
My days, my years, my life has seen up and downs, lights and darknesses. If I wrote only and continually of the ‘light’ and never mentioned the other, then as an artist, I would be a liar.
Every time I start to get worked up over something, I just think to myself, ‘Is this really going to matter in my life tomorrow, in an hour, in a year?’ You just can’t get stressed about the little things ’cause it’s just not worth it at the end of the day.
I cleaned up everything behind the scenes and simplified my life. I made some changes in my staff. I changed management, my accountants, my bookkeeping team. I had a full refresh. For me that was extremely important.
So though there are many things I would have done differently, I submit to God’s sovereignty and His purpose in my life and I thank Him that He brought me the way He brought me and gave me what He gave me when He thought I could handle it.
My life is an open book. You’re welcome to speculate.
God had brought me to my knees and made me acknowledge my own nothingness, and out of that knowledge I had been reborn. I was no longer the centre of my life and therefore I could see God in everything.
All my life, the naysayers have told me that I can’t win because I’m a progressive… because I’m a woman… even because I’m a lesbian.
There has been a lot of self-doubt and unwelcome events in my life.
I look at where I’m at today and realize that most of my success is owed to the mentors that was in my life.
I remember a specific moment, watching my grandmother hang the clothes on the line, and her saying to me, ‘you are going to have to learn to do this,’ and me being in that space of awareness and knowing that my life would not be the same as my grandmother’s life.
If I had my life to live over, I would perhaps have more actual troubles but I’d have fewer imaginary ones.
I want to try to keep my life the same.
The things I write about are the things that I am passionate about, interested in, and fighting for in my life.
The only jobs kids have are to do well in school, to be charming and polite, and be thankful. That’s it. I’ll house you, protect you, I’ll even give my life for you, and in return, you will behave.
I can’t really change my life to accommodate people who are jealous. I don’t see why I should.
When I auditioned for ’21 Jump Street,’ it was a last minute thing. I had one of the worst flus that I’ve ever experienced in my life, and I was forced to go to the audition, the screen test.
I would rather live my life as if there is a God and die to find out there isn’t, than live as if there isn’t and to die to find out that there is.
With all of you men out there who think that having a thousand different ladies is pretty cool, I have learned in my life I’ve found out that having one woman a thousand different times is much more satisfying.
I bring to my life a certain amount of mess.
High school is what kind of grows you into the person you are. I have great memories, good and bad, some learning experiences and some that I’ll take with me the rest of my life.
My diabetes is such a central part of my life… it did teach me discipline… it also taught me about moderation… I’ve trained myself to be super-vigilant… because I feel better when I am in control.
My life has been a tapestry of rich and royal hue, an everlasting vision of the ever changing view.
I just have beautiful memories of what has happened in my life.
I, for one, am profoundly grateful to feel the hand of God at work in my life. But at the beginning and end of the day, when my default setting is to show kindness and love to others, I never regret it. And to me, that is what faith is all about.
Everything I did in my life that was worthwhile, I caught hell for.
As I got older, my life become a whirlwind of homework and responsibilities. The hospital became my retreat, a place to gather my thoughts and focus on my health. The nurses are my friends as well as my caretakers. The doctors are my parents as well as my physicians.
My life is my argument.
I rely on other people every day of my life.
I had to overcome challenge after challenge in order to take my life from nothing to living my dreams.
Ever since I was a child, I have loved being the centre of attention, but similarly, I can’t remember a time in my life that I haven’t battled with all sorts of quandaries, fears and weaknesses.
Never be ashamed of what you feel. You have the right to feel any emotion that you want, and to do what makes you happy. That’s my life motto.
I don’t go off and sit down and try to write material, because then it’s contrived and forced. I just live my life, and I see things in a word or a situation or a concept, and it will create a joke for me.
Painting completed my life.
Ya know, right now the most important thing in my life is to make sure you understand that, first of all I thank God I’m alive today, and I mean that. I spent too many years of my life thinking that the big party was the whole thing.
If all I’m remembered for is being a good basketball player, then I’ve done a bad job with the rest of my life.
My daily routine is set: I wake up and go for gymnastics, then dance class, gym, and come back home. That’s my life. I am very boring.
I know that I will never find my father in any other man who comes into my life, because it is a void in my life that can only be filled by him.
I never did steroids in my life. I know all the fighters; they are all on steroids.
I’d feel bad pretending my life was anything other than pretty good, so I do the role as well as I can and then I go home, have a cup of tea, see my family and friends, and appreciate what I’ve got.
I’ve been through a lot of experiences in my life being in the biggest band in the world.
I train and I go home, and when I’m home, I think about training. That’s my life every day, and that’s it.
Sex does not exist for me at all. I haven’t had a boyfriend for a long time. There were only three or four in my life up until now anyway.
