I am woman, hear me roar.

Women today have more of an overview of their lives and how marriage is or is not a part of it.

I've been in a serious conversation with one of my children, and a fan has come up. I've been in a public bathroom and had the hand come under the stall with a paper and pen. That sort of thing anybody can live without.

Three-quarters of the world's population doesn't have enough to eat!

I like music to soothe me.

I'm a very private person, and when I leave the stage, I leave the stage.

Please don't ask me any questions about the politics of 30 years ago.

There is a wealth of twentieth century music that is being re-discovered by a generation that hasn't heard it.

Believe it or not, most people think of me as a recording artist, but actually the way I think of myself and the way I earn my living is as a performing artist.

I couldn't do anything. I'd work in a department store for a couple of weeks, but I couldn't hack it. I couldn't even type! I had no skills whatsoever outside of show business.

Stop living a day at a time and stop worrying about age.

Depression, as far as I'm concerned, is just a waste of time.

It took me a year to really learn the American lingo. I really feel for people who are coming here and don't speak English at all. It must be hell.

I don't know if it's a sign of all the chaos that is happening out there or not, but I've lately craved the structure and order of classical music, the balance and symmetry.

I had a career for 25 years in Australia before I ever came to the United States.

I did my own music videos, my own TV commercials.

Yoga is wonderful. It clears up most health problems. It also gives you an overview.

My audience are the same people who bought my albums years ago. These people are now married, with their own homes, their own families. If I'm in concert, I get people now who bring their kids.

If you had told me when I was 18 that I wouldn't have made it until I was 29, I would have said, Forget it.

I thought Erica Jong's Fear of Flying was one of the biggest pieces of crap that I've ever read in my life.

My audience is the baby-boomers, the bulk of the population. This is also a group that is being ignored by most record companies because they're not the Top 40 hit singles market. They forget these people still listen to music.

If I have to, I can do anything. I am strong, I am invincible, I am Woman.

I wanted control over the merchandising, the actual packaging of the product. That was a big factor. The only way for me to exercise control on all those levels was to start my own label.

I am woman, hear me roar.

I believe wholeheartedly in marriage. I don't exclusively mean a marriage with a legal contract, but any relationship that constitutes a marriage because of the quality of their relationship.

To this day I get mail from women who say, I went to law school because of your song. But I would hate to think out of the wide spectrum of things I have done in my career, that's all I would be remembered for.

I think that two people who decide to live together in a marriage situation, they have an obligation to make the marriage work for them.

I worked with my parents on the stage in production numbers since I was 4, but I never really gave much thought to being a performer on my own until I was 12 or 13.

I don't think any one person is the cause of all of someone else's problems.

A lot of women are turned off by the physical appearance of some of the first feminists.

I think back and marvel that my ambitions were so small.

It took so long to make it in America. The year I arrived was a bad year for women singers, the record company told me. So I starved. I lived in a hotel so dreadful I can't even talk about it.

If you tell people your ambitions, they usually laugh at you. When I told my girlfriends when I was 12 that I was going to Hollywood, they all laughed. And here I am!

In the '50s, a lot of girls never saw beyond the wedding day.

I was looking for a husband, but meanwhile to survive, I had to work.

There is no magic person out there, no perfect human being out there waiting for you.

I was very strongly influenced by women's magazines and I really believed tha a woman could not be married and raise a family and have a successful career all at the same time.

I am woman, hear me roar, in numbers too big to ignore, and I know too much to go back and pretend.

Most of the people I know in show business don't need anybody pushing them at all. They're extremely aggressive.

I always believed that I could make it or I would never have spent so many years trying to get here.

Hindsight is wonderful. It's always very easy to second guess after the fact.

You're not going to find a man whose socks don't get dirty or who doesn't snore.

Hindsight is wonderful. Its always very easy to second guess after the fact.

The woman who thinks she is intelligent demands equal rights with men. A woman who is intelligent does not.

But even with a character like Cary who is relatively outlandish, at the end of the movie he's in a place where I wouldn't have expected him to be - taking on the responsibility of a woman who is pregnant and who used to be his best friend's wife.

Let me first state that I believe that marriage is a sacred union between one man and one woman.

I believe that if a man does a job as well as a woman, he should be paid as much.

A woman is the only thing I am afraid of that I know will not hurt me.

What becomes a crime deserving capital punishment when the tables are turned is a matter of small moment when the negro woman is the accusing party.
