"As individuals we have the power to change or alter our present and our future. Through the strength I found in my positive outlook I opened doors to my own future and will always continue to brave the confidence it takes to reach my goals in life. Reaching goals requires continuous soul-searching and never comparing ourselves with those around us. As individuals we must focus all our energies in the direction that we find most rewarding. With this attitude no one can possibly walk away feeling as though they've lost."
Susan Powell, personal correspondence, Miss America Organization Archives, Atlantic City
