“I sometimes wake in the early morning & listen to the soft breathing of my child & I think to myself, this is one thing I will never regret & I carry that quiet with me all day long.”

“I shall never deny what you deserve, my queen,
never regret my memories of Dido, not while I
can recall myself and draw the breath of life.”
Numquam, regina, negabo Promeritam, nec me meminisse pigebit Elissae Dum memor ipse mei, dum spiritus hos regit artus.

“I don't grow up. In me is the small child of my early days.”

“Give me my freedom for as long as I be
All I ask of livin' is to have no chains on me
All I ask of livin' is to have no chains on me
And all I ask of dyin' is to go naturally…
And when I die, and when I'm gone
There'll be one child born, in our world
To carry on, to carry on…”

“I like to wake up each morning and not know what I think, that I may reinvent myself in some way.”

““I wake up in the morning and sometimes I just want to wear a T-shirt and blue jeans and now I have to force myself to do that, because I can’t care what people think, you know?...”

“Every night when I go to bed I think, In the morning I will wake up in my own house and things will be back the way they were.
It hasn’t happened this morning, either.”

“I doubt sometimes whether a quiet and unagitated life would have suited me - yet I sometimes long for it.”

“I think I will do nothing for a long time but listen,
And accrue what I hear into myself… and let sound contribute toward me.”

“If i were to think of one thing i like about myself it'd be my confidence which taught me never to give up in life.”
