I'm really good at growing roses.

I'm always professional and turn up on time and do my job.

I remember when I got to 16, my mum was like, 'No, now you've got to go and get a proper job. We've indulged you long enough.' I don't think they ever thought I was going to be successful in entertainment at all.

I am a light person. I think of myself with a shield, a protective shield around me. And I think of bad things bouncing off it. Boom, boom, boom, ba-boom, ba- boom!

I think it's very important to have the stewardship of a company by a family member.

I always admired the tolerance of my family - you know, that they tolerated my dissension for the family consensus.

Being a father or a mother is not only a great challenge, it is a divine calling. It is an effort requiring consecration.

When I was growing up, I dreamed about becoming a cowgirl, a detective, a spy, a great actress, or a ballerina. Not a dentist, like my father, or a homemaker, like my mother - and certainly not a writer, although I always loved to read.
