It is now common knowledge that the average American gains 7 pounds between Thanksgiving and New Year's Day.

The White House is giving George W. Bush intelligence briefings. You know some of these jokes just write themselves.

The essential elements of giving are power and love - activity and affection - and the consciousness of the race testifies that in the high and appropriate exercise of these is a blessedness greater than any other.

Show me your hands. Do they have scars from giving? Show me your feet. Are they wounded in service? Show me your heart. Have you left a place for divine love?

I try to bring it across on my record in my dress in what I do and what I say because to me humor is important. You should have a dose of that and I guess giving it is what I'm here for.

I would not run for president. I really like what I'm doing now. People say I'm giving them energy and hope.

I'm a vegetarian and very much active in regards to how I feel about animal rights and protecting animals and giving animals a voice.

The only thing that I hope is that people are educated that they're aware that they're living a conscious lifestyle.

I am proud to have been capable of giving people hope again.

I don't know what can be so dangerous about giving people hope.
