I'm so happy. Cause today I found my friends.
They're in my head.

I thank God for all the people whom God sent into my life, the people who gave their best so that I could learn to give my best.

God has been good. I didn’t even know about this feat. And now everybody is celebrating me. And I’m very grateful to all my loved ones. It was hard to combine a lot of this with my academic work and my colleagues were supportive and understood me

What a joy to share what I loved most with those I loved most.

There's been so many lovely things said about me, and I'm glad that I've had the opportunity to thank everybody. Thank you.

The more people I meet the happier I become.

I want to thank Troy, N.Y. … and everybody I ever met in my entire life.

Let us be grateful to the people who make us happy; they are the charming gardeners who make our souls blossom.

So maybe you'll...take some time to think about those who have cared so deeply for you that you're really nourished in this whole life because of knowing them.

Thanks to the people that walked in to my life and made it better. And thanks to the ones who walked out and made it amazing

there’s something very special about you. You’ve been blessed. I’m glad we met.

For every mountain, you brought me over…For every trial, you've seen me through…For every blessing…Hallelujah.

Thank you all for this great honor, and for all your great work. I hope it makes you happy, as you have made me happy for this five minutes of my life, which will last until I get to the edge of this stage and it hits me that this was all a bunch of nonsense.

To all of you who have made my being alive so wonderful, so exciting and so full, my thanks and all my love.
