And they were writing scripts where Christine had hit the glass ceiling. And I always thought Christine would never hit the glass ceiling. I thought her dreams would take her. Maybe her dreams wouldn't take her where she wanted but she still had her dreams.
It's weird to say but every time I look at my daughter and I see this little living breathing thing that came from me that represents all of the hopes and dreams that I would want for her I see a miracle.
When I won in 2003 never in my wildest dreams did I ever think I would win Wimbledon and have my kids seeing me lift the trophy so this is pretty surreal. And yeah I was almost shocked in the moment that it all came together so nicely.
As a kid this is what I wanted my life to be. Not in my wildest dreams did I ever dare to dream that it would be this.
I think people tend to see the bigger point which is maybe not fitting in and feeling like you didn't have the childhood that you expected you would have or that you felt lonely or struggled with drugs and alcohol or just that you were able to achieve your dreams.
Dreams are illusions and we can't let go of them because we would be dead.
The Brown decision promised that every child regardless of the color of his or her skin would have unequivocal access to quality education and an equal opportunity to pursue his/her dreams.
I've never been bashful to say that I'm not really interested in Formula One. When I lived in England it's all I wanted to do and I thought that anything else would somehow be a compromise to my dreams. But then when I came back to the States I realised how much I loved being back in the States.
Instead of plotting the demise of the traditional family as some politicians and religious leaders would have you believe gay people mow their lawns and watch 'American Idol' and video their children's concerts and have the same hopes and dreams that their straight counterparts do.
Worse than not realizing the dreams of your youth would be to have been young and never dreamed at all.
My dreams were always small and puny. All I ever needed was a little house with a little picket fence by the sea. Little did I know that I would live in Malacanang Palace for 20 years and visit all the major palaces of mankind. And then also meet ordinary citizens and the leaders of superpowers.
Dreams come true without that possibility nature would not incite us to have them.
If you're the type of person who has to fulfill your dreams you've gotta be resourceful to make sure you can do it. I came out to California when I was 21 thinking my New York credentials would take me all the way. I came back home a year later all dejected and a failure.
Never in my wildest dreams did I entertain the idea that I would become a fashion designer.
But what I was going to say was I just figured I'm going to go boldly in the direction of my dreams say it as Thoreau would say and just see where it takes me.
I did commit to myself that I would not jump back into being the workaholic that I can be before I gave myself an honest opportunity to create the marriage of my dreams and to create the beginning of the family of my dreams and that took a hot second.

I thought a vegan diet would be too difficult being on the road so much but it's been far easier than I thought.
Most diets would have you cutting things out from your diet they are about denial and discipline.
You take the healthiest diet in the world if you gave those people vitamins they would be twice as healthy. So vitamins are valuable.
I've never followed a vegan or vegetarian diet in the past but I think I could do it. It would not be easy. I have worked with nutritionists who have said a vegan diet is not necessarily all positive for your health because you need nutrients you only find in meats. I believe in a balanced diet.
At one point I even thought 'Oh I'll take diet pills.' I tried it for one day and I thought my heart was going to explode. It's awful and I would never ever recommend it.
I would eat healthy at times and pig out at times. But I never had to go on a strict diet plan.
It's just like any relationship the more contained the environment the more the good stuff appears and the more the bad stuff will reveal itself.
