Sayings by Princess Diana
I was like a lamb to the slaughter, and I didn't know it.
I think the biggest disease the world suffers from in this day and age is the disease of people feeling unloved.
I knew what my job was. It was to go out and meet the people and love them.
I don't go by the rule book. I lead from the heart, not the head.
I felt that I had been put into a goldfish bowl and every minute of every day was being watched.
I wanted to change my name to something else, like Jane.
I just want to be myself.
I will fight for my children, and I will fight for my husband, and I will fight for myself.
I think the public want someone to give them love and affection, and I'm prepared to do that.
Anywhere I see suffering, that is where I want to be, doing what I can.
I love people, and I get a lot of energy from them.
I felt extremely insecure, and I was being made to feel insecure.
I thought I was strong enough to cope with anything. But I wasn't.
I was very, very much in love with my husband, and I was very much in love with the monarchy.
I understand that I am a public figure, but I am also a human being.
I don't think I'll ever be a conventional Queen.
I want to walk into a room, be it a hospital for the dying or a council estate, and feel that I am needed.
I went to the Queen and said, 'I've come to you because I'm in despair.'
I do my best, and I hope people understand my heart.
I think the media is very powerful, and it can do a lot of good, but it can also do a lot of harm.
