Women should be respected and treated in a special way because they are special. We have created everything in this world – countries, borders, religions, laws, cultures, nationalities, money – and we are fighting over them and confused about them. These things never existed before mankind existed. Now it is time for everyone – leaders, famous celebrities, religious teachers, rich, poor, men, and women – to review their lives and determine who they are, how they should live, and what they should be doing. Becoming a successful person does not mean you must become a world leader, a famous celebrity or a successful businessperson. Arabs will rule the world one day, and that is good news for everyone. But change for the good is in store for the Arab people. Life is not about having everything, but it is about being happy. If you are happy, you have got everything. You wished for things that would make you happy, and you have received them. There are simple techniques we can follow and steps we can take to make ourselves happy forever, without having fame or fortune. Believe in good and the power of good. God, or whatever created human beings, created us to be good and to do only good things in this life

Long before her tragic death, Diana, Princess of Wales was a beloved modern icon, relatable to the general public in a way that transcended the barrier between royal and commoner. As a member of the royal family in an age of mass media, her fairy-tale wedding to, and painful divorce from, Prince Charles was played out on the world stage. Later, her humanitarian work for the Red Cross, her campaigns against landmines, and her work with the sick, especially AIDS victims, added a compassionate element to the royal family in the eyes of the world—and the world, ten years later, still hasn't gotten enough of Lady Di. This objective, accessible volume explores Diana's fascinating life, including her aristocratic upbringing, her whirlwind engagement to Prince Charles, her rocky marriage, her post-divorce status as global humanitarian icon, the media's frenzied treatment of her death, and her charitable legacy, including her sons' coming-of-age and their attempts to honor her memory.

Diana’s Ball Sports is one of 4 volumes in the Sports She Wrote series written by the first woman with her own weekly sports column in a major American newspaper, The Philadelphia Inquirer, from 1898 to 1901. Her real name (which she never revealed in print) was Mary Lagen, a prolific writer and bicycling pioneer, who inaugurated her “Athletic Woman” column at the age of 46. This volume (115,000 words) features Diana’s reports on baseball, basketball, billiards, bowling, cricket, croquet, football, tennis, and her favorite sport, golf. More than 100 of the 152 articles in this volume are about golf, including coverage of the Women’s National Golf Tournament held in Philadelphia that was published on the sports page, apart from her regular column. Several of her articles describe the condition of women’s college sports in the late 19th century. Diana is an engaging writer with a keen observational eye and clever wordplay. The other three volumes presenting Diana's column are Diana's Outdoor Sports, Diana's Fitness Fashion & Beauty, and Diana's Anecdotes & Aphorisms. Additional ball sports are included in the following volumes: Ball Sports; Ella Black, The First Woman Baseball Correspondent; Helen Dauvray, The Actress Who Loved Baseball; and Adelia Brainerd, The Outdoor Woman of Harper’s Bazar. Sports She Wrote is a 31-volume time-capsule of primary documents written by more than 500 women in the 19th century.
