I am fiercely loyal to those willing to put their money where my mouth is.

All riches have their origin in mind. Wealth is in ideas - not money.

Many people take no care of their money till they come nearly to the end of it and others do just the same with their time.

I probably wouldn't be singing if not for Michael Jackson. When I started singing I didn't like my tone until my mom put me on to Michael Jackson and Stevie Wonder so listening to the way they used their instrument helped me get more comfortable with my own.

Two weeks ago at the U.S. Amateur my mom caddied and that is kind of a different feeling because she's your mom and you have to listen to her. It was really comfortable having my mom there but it's also really relieving and comfortable to have someone that knows the course off their hat really.

I always think about which blood drive was going on in Georgia that day when that husband or mom or school teacher rolled up their sleeve and actually gave me a second chance at life. It's the ultimate gift of life and I'm the one who was on the other end.

In third grade I was taking tap-dance lessons and about six weeks before the recital I wanted to quit. My mom said 'No you're going to stay with it.' Well I did it and I was bad too! But my parents never let their kids walk away from something because it was too hard.

As a mom I understand how important it is to ensure kids start their day right and always make sure my kids have a nutritious breakfast. One in five U.S. children live in homes where food is not always available which is why I partnered with Kellogg's on their 'Share Your Breakfast' campaign which provide breakfasts to kids in need.

We've got activists all across the country like the members of the Million Mom March organization some of their leaders are here tonight. We're phone banking congressional offices and pursuing editorial boards.

My mom died of cancer when I was really young. I'm not someone who tries to work out their own stuff with a role but I think that happened despite my best efforts to keep myself separate from it.
