You are so much more than what people have done to you, and to let that define you, would be a tragedy.

Obesity has overtaken cancer as the No. 1 cause of avoidable, preventable death in American society. It’s an epidemic-level problem.

You can’t change what you don’t acknowledge.

There’s a big difference between falling in love and being in love. There’s a big difference between infatuation and falling in love.

My dad used to say, ‘You wouldn’t worry so much about what people thought about you if you knew how seldom they did.

What I want people to do is what’s healthy for them.

Logic will get you from A to B. Imagination will take you everywhere.

We don’t see things as they are. We see things as we are.

I am become death, shatterer of worlds.

I arise in the morning torn between a desire to improve (or save) the world and a desire to enjoy (or savor) the world. This makes it hard to plan the day.

They ask me how I love you and I say in pages, in novels, in volumes. I love you like my favorite story, the one that I wake up to every day and watch unfold. And I don’t know how it ends, but I know your name is already written in the chapters of my life that I have yet to live.

Don’t go through life, GROW through life.

Fate is being kind to me. Fate doesn’t want me to be too famous too young.

I always live in some kind of anticipation of something good happening.
