Every generation imagines itself to be more intelligent than the one that went before it, and wiser than the one that comes after it.

I don't regret the things I've done, I regret the things I didn't do.

I don’t like to be labeled. I’m not just an R&B singer. I’m not just a pop singer. I’m an artist.

Of all the means which wisdom acquires to ensure happiness throughout the whole of life, by far the most important is friendship.

Love is not a victory march, it's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah.

"A good picture book leaves room for the reader's imagination to grow."
