Being fat worked, and I think that was what was confusing for me for a long time in my career.

I was a girl and became a woman. Something about having the freedom at home to be in the position I wanted, to have the people I wanted, was empowering.

If I had been on 'Bowling for Dollars', I'd wind up owing them money.

To establish personal relationships with the people you work with is stupid, because you never know when the winds will change. I try not to get too close to people.

You can't change anyone else, but people do change in relationship to your change.

Because most people are not sufficiently employed in themselves, they run about loose, hungering for employment, and satisfy themselves in various supererogatory occupations. The easiest of these occupations, which have all to do with making things already made, is the making of people: it is called the art of friendship.

The lust and attraction are often a given in a romance novel - I want to dig into the elements of true friendship that form a foundation for a solid, gonna-last-forever romantic relationship.
