If I could wish for my life to be perfect, it would be tempting but I would have to decline, for life would no longer teach me anything.

The attacks in Jordan, just like those before it in Indonesia, Egypt, Spain and the United States, demonstrate that terrorism does not discriminate by race, ethnicity or region. Instead, terrorists indiscriminately target those seeking to live a peaceful, loving and free life.

I call it a life sentence on the installment plan.

I've never looked back in my life. I don't want to see that stuff. I had blanked out a lot of stuff ... putting my mother in a straitjacket, my father holding her down, screaming.

She didn't want to go outside. She was scared for her life.

We want to do something for someone who has taken care of others her whole life.
