I'm no saint. I'm no angel. I never proclaimed to be.

My basic philosophy is that no human being is a saint.

A saint is a person who gives of themself without asking for anything in return. That's how simple it is to be a saint. Try it! Try being a saint.

I'm not going to pretend I'm some saint, because I'm not.

I never said I was an angel. Nor am I innocent or holy like the Virgin Mary. What I am is natural and serious and as sensitive as an open nerve on an ice cube.

I'm no angel, but I'm no monster, either.

I wish people wouldn't think of me as a saint - unless they agree with the definition of a saint that a saint's a sinner who goes on trying.

You don't have to be an angel, just be someone who can give.

Don't call me a saint. I don't want to be dismissed so easily.
