We the people can’t let that happen."― Kerry Washington "It’s a huge change for your body. You don’t even want to look in the mirror after you’ve had a baby, because your stomach is just hanging there like a Shar-Pei."― Cindy Crawford "A child who is allowed to be disrespectful to his parents will not have true respect for anyone."― Billy Graham
