I don't believe in failure. It is not failure if you enjoyed the process.

I've come to believe that all my past failure and frustration were actually laying the foundation for the understandings that have created the new level of living I now enjoy.

I don't believe in the so-called Olympic spirit. I speak from personal experience. When China hosted the Games it failed to include the people. The event was constructed without regard for their joy.

We believe that Lebanon has been the first real experience for all the Arabs.

If you believe your catcher is intelligent and you know that he has considerable experience it is a good thing to leave the game almost entirely in his hands.

I believe that being an actress or being involved in a movie has to be a life experience otherwise why go for it? I have to change me and I have to learn things and I have to push me and my limits. By acting I find a freedom inside of a prison in a way.

My father respected and admired my mother and was a person who was always standing by my side encouraging me to do more and believed in my capacity. So in that sense my own experience was very good in becoming an empowered woman. From early on I carried that strong message: 'You can do it.' So I never had any doubt that women can do a lot.

I was an only child. I've known only children. From this experience I do believe that the children should outnumber the parents.

It's a very small and select slice of all the people who have ever been born. I believe we've come back during this time those of us who are here now specifically to experience it. And to cause a 'quickening of the spirit.'

I'm a very passionate believer in the unity of knowledge. There is one world of reality - one world of our experience that we're seeking to describe.
