Honestly, we'd probably be great parents. But it's a human being, and unless you think you have excellent skills and have a drive or yearning in you to do that, the amount of work that that is and responsibility - I wouldn't want to screw them up! We love our animals.

This is my real secret to being a joyful person: I make my life easy. I spend more time being grateful for what I have instead of focusing on what isn't working. I no longer believe that people have to do things my way and that I have to be perfect.

---

I ask people why they have deer heads on their walls. They always say because it's such a beautiful animal. There you go. I think my mother is attractive, but I have photographs of her.

If anybody could put themselves in that situation of feeling a giant loud voice saying you don't deserve the same rights, you are different and you are not equal, it feels really bad.

Sometimes you can't see yourself clearly until you see yourself through the eyes of others.

---

Do we have to know who's gay and who's straight? Can't we just love everybody and judge them by the car they drive?

---

I work really hard at trying to see the big picture and not getting stuck in ego. I believe we're all put on this planet for a purpose, and we all have a different purpose... When you connect with that love and that compassion, that's when everything unfolds.

---

My point is, life is about balance. The good and the bad. The highs and the lows. The pina and the colada.

---

Gratitude is looking on the brighter side of the life, even if it means hurting your eyes

---

I learned compassion from being discriminated against. Everything bad that's ever happened to me has taught me compassion.
