“Every day I count wasted in which there has been no dancing.”
“Then, there are the places you would rather not go-a tax collectors' convention, a sewage treatment plant, or maybe the home of someone who keeps spiders as pets and insists on taking them out of their cages and making you hold them.”
“Give blood, but you may find that blood is not enough.”

While through science man tries to harness the forces of nature around him, through religion he tries to harness the force of nature within him.”
“If youâ€™re comparing the badness of two words and you wonâ€™t even say one of them [the n-word], thatâ€™s the worse word.”
“Many women hear the word "feminine" and feel like it's a noose around their neck. "Don't hold me to a mode of behavior because I'm a woman and you think this is how a woman should act," kind of thing.”
“I am a classical music lover - not necessarily the contemporary stuff, but the old stuff.”
“Sometimes God takes your life for some crazy twists and turns.”
