So you start one person at a time. Change one person, you can change a village.

An apology might help, but you can change your life without one.
I was 11 when I was molested. It was like a nuclear explosion going off in my life, destroying everything.
Too many people don't do things for fear of falling. You'll never get good unless you fall. Experiences and new accomplishments are feelings we should never lose.
When you go out on a limb, that's when you really know you're living.
So the point is, I don't have a right to tell anybody what's right or wrong about their lives. Who am I to tell you at any given moment of the day what would be right for you?
I'm nutty for nutrition. I've become one of those people who can't stop talking about the connection between food and health. Now that I know how much changing what you eat can transform your life, I can't stop proselytizing.
I keep wondering how to explain the experience of child abuse from the inside. I'm going to try to explain what my world was like when I was sexually abused. The thing you have to remember is that this was the thinking of a child.
I thought being vegan was going to be some really horrible way of life that had no flavor.
I was having health issues all my life. You're just not conditioned to think of them as health issues.
I never cooked before I became vegan. Preparing a meal as opposed to ordering in all the time, you start thinking about where your food comes from and how it gets to your table. You notice that chain.
I had a major surgery, a major abdominal surgery, and a mass was removed from my pelvic area, and I do have some more recovery to do. But everything seems to be fine.
If Thomas Jefferson had heard us, he probably would have said, 'We shouldn't have free speech.'
It's sad that women characters have lost so much ground in popular movies. Didn't 'Thelma and Louise' prove that women want to see women doing things on film? Thelma and Louise were in a classic car; they were being chased by cops; they shot up a truck - and women loved it.
Changing my body has given me the ability to do all these amazing things that I never in a million years imagined I could do.
I think I have some interesting things to say and I don't think anybody out there is saying them.
I made the connection between food and weight, but feeling good or bad was a separate issue.
Over the years, people have often said to us that they were going through some horrible thing in their life - maybe the worst thing that had ever happened, or that they could think would ever happen - and that, somehow, in that state, we made them laugh. And I was like, 'That's a wonderful calling.'
I, quite frankly, am grateful for every day. I don't take anything for granted.
Men have been intimidated by my relationship with Howard. You know, it's hard for them to imagine that they could be number one, seeing this relationship.
I didn't think it sounded so much different than anyone else's voice until I got to the broadcasting school, and I raised my hand to ask a question of the school president, and he said, 'See me after class.' And the rest is history.
There was endometrial tissue outside of where it belonged, and the cancer developed from that.
