I stand before you as the governor of Texas but also stand before you the son of two tenant farmers. Ray Perry who came home after 35 bombing missions over Europe to work his little corner of land out there and Amelia who made sure that my sister Milla and I had everything that we needed included hand sewing my clothes until I went off to college.

I live by 'Go big or go home.' That's with everything. It's like either commit and go for it or don't do it at all. I apply that to everything. I apply that to relationships I apply that to like sports I apply that to everything. That's what I live by. That's how I like it.

Marrying a man is like buying something you've been admiring for a long time in a shop window. You may love it when you get it home but it doesn't always go with everything else in the house.

It's not like I'm this glamour diva who hands everything over and I just sit on my throne at home.

There's a continuity between what I care about in any form: I care about it in my music in article-writing in how I dress in how I live in my relationships in how I navigate paparazzi how I decorate my home. There's such a continuity between everything that I don't really care what form it shows up in.

When I come home my daughter will run to the door and give me a big hug and everything that's happened that day just melts away.

You come home and you party. But after that you get a hangover. Everything about that is negative.

I just owe almost everything to my father and it's passionately interesting for me that the things that I learned in a small town in a very modest home are just the things that I believe have won the election.

I didn't have nothin' going for me... school home... until I found something I loved which was music and that changed everything.

Say there's a white kid who lives in a nice home goes to an all-white school and is pretty much having everything handed to him on a platter - for him to pick up a rap tape is incredible to me because what that's saying is that he's living a fantasy life of rebellion.

If my world were to cave in tomorrow I would look back on all the pleasures excitements and worthwhilenesses I have been lucky enough to have had. Not the sadness not my miscarriages or my father leaving home but the joy of everything else. It will have been enough.

I don't know the history of my sport. I'm not like those people who know everything.

Everything was going my way. I was happily marching into the history books. Then it all just fell apart.

We have nothing in our history or position to invite aggression we have everything to beckon us to the cultivation of relations of peace and amity with all nations.

To correct a natural indifference I was placed half-way between misery and the sun. Misery kept me from believing that all was well under the sun and the sun taught me that history wasn't everything.

The essence of a government health care system - for people who have never lived under it and don't know - is waiting waiting waiting. You wait for everything. You wait for years for operations that are routine in America.

People are at their happiest if they are true to themselves. I think that applies to their chosen profession friends and relationships. It goes for your health too. If you are true to yourself it seems to me everything should work out pretty well.

It is important for women to have a choice to have an opportunity to plan their families because if they don't the Republicans have said this is an ownership society. You are on your own and they're going to begrudge that child everything from WIC to a Pell Grant to health insurance.

I believe that music in itself heals and that everything is about the power of the mind. I thought if you are happy you don't get ill. Your health is in your head. When you are satisfied with your work you don't get ill.

Like it or not in the end it's one's body. It's literally what carries you through life. There's a reason for the saying 'If you have your health you have everything ' and it's true. Old age disease - these are the great equalizers.

As the blessings of health and fortune have a beginning so they must also find an end. Everything rises but to fall and increases but to decay.

Your body hears everything your mind says.

You know all that really matters is that the people you love are happy and healthy. Everything else is just sprinkles on the sundae.

I knew everything and received everything. But real happiness is giving.
