I felt I had a responsibility to do the right thing. And then I wanted to do the right thing by my family and there was no handbook.
There is no need of a teacher for those who know how to think.
I don't listen to anyone else. That's why I don't have a publicist or something like that. I can't stand it if someone's trying to tell me to do something which might be a mistake sometimes.
What is the path? There is no path. On into the unknown.
I had neither expert aid nor advice. I studied no courses in writing; until a year or so ago, I never read a book by anybody advising writers how to write.
I’m the first to say that I’ve no idea what I’m doing. There is no manual here for how to be mayor.
Alone! Alone! No beacon, far or near! No chart, no compass, and no anchor stay!
No one's going to hold your hand in the boxing business. And the people who do end up ripping you off.
I wanted to do something that nobody else was doing. I didn't have a mentor. There were no other women on the radio.
My high school didn't really have a good training program, so I did it on my own.
I was elected on April 13 and sworn in two days later, so I had no orientation. I had to figure things out as I went along.
When I was your age, art was a lonely thing: no galleries, no collecting, no critics, no money. We didn't have mentors. We didn't have parents. We were alone. But it was a great time, because we had nothing to lose and a vision to gain.
The motto of my life is, 'The best advice is no advice at all.'
Life doesn't come with an instruction manual.
I'm learning as I go. I don't know everything. I never had anybody to look at, nobody ever taught me, and where I'm from I didn't have any famous role models.
I have no advice for anyone on how to live.
There's not a blueprint for me to follow.
I think a lot of people are getting more serious about how to do the most good, but there is no road map. I'm hoping I can offer an example.
