Sometimes you’ve got to let everything go—purge yourself . . . If you are unhappy with anything . . . whatever is bringing you down, get rid of it. Because you’ll find that when you’re free, your true creativity, your true self comes out.
Words Of Wisdom: Tina Turner

But I believe we have a higher level of mentality within us, but we have to use the power in the right way.

For me the goddess is the female of God, She is powerful if different.

I am a practicing Buddhist. I have been for over 25 years.

I am attracted to myths.

I believe in prayer and in strong belief.

I didn’t have anybody, really, no foundation in life, so I had to make my own way. Always, from the start. I had to go out in the world and become strong, to discover my mission in life.

I don’t like to dwell on the past.

I heard stories from my mother’s mother who was an American Indian. She was spiritual, although she did not go to church, but she had the hum. She used to tell me stories of the rivers.

I regret not having had more time with my kids when they were growing up.

I’m not wise, but the beginning of wisdom is there; it’s like relaxing into – and an acceptance of – things.

I’m perfectly fine now if I never went on stage again.

I’m pleased with my life, with the journey.

In Buddhism there are words you can say… as you say the words with rhythm the conscious tells the subconscious.

My career always took me away from home, I was always away from home and I just wanted to be at home.

Physical strength in a woman – that’s what I am.

Sometimes we need help from a god.

This is what I want in heaven… words to become notes and conversations to be symphonies.

You take your problems to a god, but what you really need is for the god to take you to the inside of you.

– Tina Turner
