Life is not a private affair. A story and its lessons are only made useful if shared.
The stories I’m interested in are challenging ones, and maybe that requires a little bit more of you. I love my job and I want to earn the right to do it every single day.
It’s time to begin righting the story of your life.
Change your story, change your life. Basically, that’s what it is.
People love stories and the more you can give information and knowledge and even wisdom through a story, the more likely you are to be heard.
Separate the story – your story – from facts.
Become the director, producer, choreographer of your own story.
We forget old stories, but those stories remain the same.
Every life has a purpose. Share your story and you may help someone find their own.
I’ve taken all the scandals back and made them part of my story and my music.
The girls with prettiest smiles seem to tell saddest stories.
I sing as an actress. Whatever I’m singing about, I just become the story.
I’m working on my life story. I’m not decided if it’s going to be a musical or a movie with music in it.
I love story songs because I’ve always loved books.
And that is a story that no one can beat, When I say that I saw it on Mulberry Street.

If God could tell the story of the Universe, the Universe would become fictitious.
Surrender is surrender to this moment, not to a story through which you interpret this moment and then try to resign yourself to it.
Don’t seek happiness. If you seek it, you won’t find it, because seeking is the antithesis of happiness. Happiness is ever elusive, but freedom from unhappiness is attainable now, by facing what is rather than making up stories about it.
Emotion in itself is not unhappiness. Only emotion plus an unhappy story is unhappiness.
