If bad luck knows who you are, become someone else.
My family doesn't understand trying to chase your dreams because they were all about survival.
Whatever you want to do with your life, you really got to want it. And if you want it, and you work hard, it will happen.

I think we need to have stories about women that don't necessarily fit the trope of the classic woman, because they do exist. We have to show real life on TV and film. And we don't.

The master class has always declared the wars; the subject class has always fought the battles. The master class had all to gain and nothing to lose, while the subject class has had nothing to gain and all to lose - especially their lives.
If you ever think about giving up, remember why you held on for so long.
Elvis is English, and climbs the hills. Can't tell the bullshit from the lies.
What a house - nothin' but rooms!
