He is a true Doctor of the Church, a man who from his precious participation in the Council to his brilliant academic activity and his theological production, from his episcopate in Munich to his memorable mission as guardian of the faith alongside Wojtyła, its true pillar, has become a giant in the last fifty years (also in the debate with secular culture). And all this associated with truly extraordinary humanity, simplicity, moral courage, humility qualities....We could continue with Montini, three degrees , precious collaborator of Pius XII in the Secretariat of State, therefore in the government of the universal Church, in crucial years; great theological preparation, friend of important thinkers for Christianity such as Jacques Maritain, later bishop of Milan capable of giving a vigorous missionary push to the metropolis, therefore protagonist of the Council."
"I pray for him (Pope Francis) as a Catholic, but for a living I have to rely on evidence. Just reread the interviews he gives, it's an extremely painful, dramatic situation.

"His teaching (of Pope Francis) is as iridescent as Saruman's dress. I am thrilled by his evangelical freedom, his simplicity, his be outside the clerical mold.

While the Catholics who listen to Bergoglio increasingly conform to dominant secularist culture.

"Oriana Fallaci is not only a great journalist: for me she is "the" journalism. And I underline "is" (wasn't) for many reasons.

We can still all be in each other’s lives and have group dinners."

I never thought that I needed security staying outside my door, even though I had a lot of jewelry.

If I had a day off from filming, I didn't know what to do. Now I enjoy my family time so much, there is this sense of, If it all went away, and I was just a mom, I would love my life."
"When I found out I was pregnant [with North], I was going through an awful divorce, Kanye and I had just been dating for seven months—granted, we knew each other for a decade—and I was like, "I can't do this. It's not the right time." But then I figured, If I'm in my thirties and I'm not ready, I'll never be ready. So it's been the biggest lesson, and the biggest joy of my life."
"My best friend told me, "You'll never remember what your life was like before her, but it'll be OK."... North has taught me patience. There's nothing I wouldn't do for her. And nothing I wouldn't do for my husband. She's empowered us to want to be the best parents and the best spouses.... Today North put on these Manolo heels of mine and was walking perfectly around my closet. I sent Kanye a video of her; he was like, "Tell her to stop! She cannot grow up, she cannot wear your heels.""
"I mean, obviously as you grow up, no one's ever 100 percent proud of every decision that they've made, and that's OK. I think as long as you learn from your mistakes, and don't make them over and over again, you're on the right path."
"I'm not trying to influence anyone else; I'm not saying, "Do what I do." I think it's a little pretentious to say, "I'm a role model"; I would never say that, and I don't think of myself that way.

But [photographer] Jean-Paul Goude gave me a book of his images when I was in makeup, and it was, like, Naomi Campbell naked and hanging from a rope—one of the coolest shots I've ever seen. So I said to him, "Hey, there's no rush. My publicist isn't here. We can kick the magazine out. If you want to work more, I'm here all night." When everyone came back, I was like, "You guys are going to die when you see what we did." I had dinner with my mom and Kanye afterward; they were like, "How was your shoot?" I was like, "Oh, good." I didn't say anything. When the magazine came out, my mom called screaming, "You didn't f--king warn me!" She went so crazy. I was like, "Relax, it's my shoot, my body, my life.""
"My style was really fun and flirty and cute; very colorful, very trendy. When I started dating Kanye, he was like, "Babe, you have so many crazy shoes and platforms with spikes and jewels, so much going on. Can I have my stylist come and we'll clean out your closet?" I've become in love with this still sexy but just cleaner look."
"I didn't know that I was going to be so open with [my fertility challenges]. But meeting people at my fertility doctor's office who are going through the same things I'm going through, I thought, Why not share my story? It's been really emotional. One doctor told me I would need my uterus removed after I had another baby—I could only have one more. One was like, "You should get a surrogate." The other one was like, "Oh, no, you'll be fine." Then I called my doctor, and he's like, "You know what? I believe—we'll get through it."There are definitely times when I walked out [of the doctor's office] hysterically crying,and other times when I was like, "OK, everything's looking good—it's going to be this month!"

"Stories are the ways we make sense of ourselves and learn about others. At its heart, storytelling is all about building connections through sharing and listening. When we share our experiences, we make ourselves vulnerable — and when we listen, we create space for empathy and understanding."
