And yet because of my attempt at sincerity I have been condemned, hooted at, reviled; filthy rumors have been circulated about me, not about my characterizations but about me personally, my private self.

As time goes by, people get to know you better. They pose problems for you, and you have to come up with solutions.

People face difficulties, no matter who you are. I faced difficulties with a lot of things. I face opposition every day, but I didn't kill myself and now, thank God, I'm here.

Your problems never cease. They just change.

So much has been written about me, and people don't know what's right and what's wrong. I'd rather let them stay confused.

I've been doing everything I can to reach out and understand why people voted against me. They were trying to send a message. I have to be more sensitive in the way I express myself, and I have to be more thoughtful in the positions I take.

I have made my mistakes my strengths instead of looking at whose fault it is.

Problems arise in that one has to find a balance between what people need from you and what you need for yourself.

So many times in my life, people have tried to make me a failure.

A problem is a chance for you to do your best.
