It's the best thing ever-I love being a mom. This is my only child. My career was a priority earlier in my life, but now my son is definitely the priority.
I'm excited about it -- and that's what you should be.
The sun is the only safe nuclear reactor, situated as it is some ninety-three million miles away.
Wonder is our erotic affiliation with all of life. If we develop this, enjoy it, and follow its promptings, our wants will be fewer and our needs plainer.
There is onslaught is the accelerating momentum of technologies and instrumental mentalities that are exterminating spontaneity, undermining love and common decency. It's a thief of time and includes all the palpable and subtle violations of body, mind, and spirit done in the name of science, government, enterprise, progress, and profit.
Individuals can refuse to use a given technology, but unless they live in total isolation will have to engage with people whose psyches have been shaped by a multitude of technologies. And there is no escaping the pervasive ecological effects.

Being a mom has made me a better person. It's made me more compassionate. It's just awesome. I think I was put here to be a mom.
I would love to do a collaboration with Lil' Wayne. I would have loved to sing on his song, 'How To Love.' I wanted to do the remix to that song really bad.
I have mad love for the way we were taught and trained back in the day. I mean, those of us - like Chaka Khan, Patti LaBelle, Gladys Knight - we didn't give into this new wave of celebrity.
I love theater. I started in theater when I was nine years old.
