Excuse me, guess I've mistaken you for somebody else, somebody who gave a damn, somebody more like myself.
Jewel
Everything is temporary if you give it enough time.
Jewel
I used to love reading when I was little, and then it became difficult and I didn't understand why. I thought, what a bummer, my passion all drained out of me. So when I found out I had dyslexia, it was like, oh, that's what it was.
Jewel
I get bored very easily. I have a voracious appetite and I do not feel alive if I'm repeating something I'm good at. So I'm always looking for new challenges.

I was Renee Zellweger's fat doppelganger. If she ever played in a movie where she needed to be fat, apparently I could be her stunt double.
Jewel
I believe in liberty and freedom for all. I believe in gay marriage.
Jewel
I want love to be simple. I want to trust without thinking. I want to be generous with my affection and patience and love unconditionally. It is easier to love a person with their flaws than to weed through them. I want to love the whole person, not parts and this is how I want to be loved.
Jewel
Being part of the natural world reminds me that innocence isn't ever lost completely we just need to maintain our goodness to regain it.
Jewel

Jewel
Self love is a great recurring theme, the headwaters that feed my ability to be the best version of myself in every other aspect of my life. Self worth sets the standard that life meets.
Jewel
Life is seductive, yet so few allow themselves to be seduced.
Jewel
I've had mentors who were kind of the troubadour singer-songwriters, like Merle Haggard, Loretta Lynn, Joni Mitchell, Bob Dylan and Neil Young, and that's just what I've always liked - people who would talk real honestly about their lives and their circumstance.
Jewel
I'm half alive but I feel mostly dead.
Jewel
I know, you love me and soon you will see, you were meant for me and I was meant for you
Jewel
Only kindness matters. We are God's hands.
Jewel
Solutions and technologies exist to provide clean, affordable drinking water anywhere in the world. These solutions will save lives, reduce financial burdens, foster peace, and relieve millions of people from worrying about their next drink of water.
Jewel
We can't underestimate the value of silence. We need to create ourselves, need to spend time alone. If you don't, you risk not knowing yourself and not realizing your dreams.
Jewel
We'll fight, not out of spite For someone must stand up for what's right 'Cause where there's a man who has no voice There ours shall go singing My hands are small I know But they're not yours, they are my own But they're not yours, they are my own I am never broken In the end only kindness matters In the end only kindness matters
