It Is O. K. For

I Have Talked About Choosing Rather Than Acting From Compulsion. When You Feel That You Have To Live According To Someone Else's Direction Or Live So That You Never Disappoint Or Hurt Anybody, Then Your Life Is A Continual Assessment Of Whether Or Not You Please Other People.

Negotiating The Adolescent Stage Is Neither Quick Nor Easy. . . . I Have Often Said To Parents, "if It Isn't Illegal, Immoral, Orfattening, Give It Your Blessing." We Do Much Better . . . If We Find And Support All The Places We Can Appropriately Say Yes, And Say Only The No's That Really Matter.

The Greatest Gift I Can Give Is To See, Hear, Understand, And Touch Another Person.

I Want You To Get Excited About Who You Are, What You Are, What You Have, And What Can Still Be For You. I Want To Inspire You To See That You Can Go Far Beyond Where You Are Right Now.

We Can Learn Something New Anytime We Believe We Can.
