There were so many pretty girls coming into the salon as clients, and others working in the salon. And I thought, 'Hmm. This is rather nice.'

It was my mother's idea. Her feeling was that I didn't have the intelligence to pick a trade myself.

For nine years I worked to change what was hairdressing then into a geometric art form with color, perm without setting which had never been done before.

I believe in the equality of man; and I believe that religious duties consist in doing justice, loving mercy, and endeavoring to make our fellow-creatures happy.

Love, it has been said, flows downward. The love of parents for their children has always been far more powerful than that of children for their parents; and who among the sons of men ever loved God with a thousandth part of the love which God has manifested to us?

Mothers are truly great who can do anything for you. But no one can do what a mother can for her child. That's what makes them special.

If I am honest, my food is actually quite far removed from both the food of my mother and my father.

That undeniable love for your child... that's something I totally get. And the bumps in the road, too. Like, any parent that thinks they have a perfect relationship with their child is a liar, or they're just not present.
