To this day I do not believe I'm great at anything.

Love in the real world means saying you're sorry 10 times a day.

I did feel from day one that I was a born performer.

There was no way we'd ever get spoiled. Daddy made sure to instill in us a work ethic.

I wasn't ever interested in marrying someone else's career or bank account.

To this day I do not believe I'm great at anything.

If I could learn to treat triumph and disaster the same, then I would find bliss.

For every sleazeball in the business there are plenty of decent and wonderful people.

To me an audition is 30 crazed people in a room waiting to be axed.

I hate politics, hate deals, and deal-making, hate meeting with attorneys and agents.

Our culture is in moral chaos. On TV we celebrate freaks instead of honest, decent people.

They don't call me spontaneous and irreverant for nothing.

Sexual harassment is complex, subtle, and highly subjective.

Life seemed so simple and joyous when I was growing up.

If I'm in love I want to get married. That's how stupid I am.

For many people religion can be so easy they stumble right over it.

God didn't bless me with success so I could eat caviar every day.

A fear of the unknown keeps a lot of people from leaving bad situations.

We heard stories about fakery and decoys at revivals. I never personally saw any trickery.

It's no secret that I love to talk, but the real secret is I love to listen, too.

Mom thinks I live in this dream world where everybody's Ivana Trump.

Over the years my mom has become a self-taught Biblical scholar.

The payoffs in showbiz seemed as random as a slot machine.

People were referring to me as the new Anita Bryant. Anita would get a little jealous.

I was told all my life I was part Cherokee. Then it was Crow. The latest is Blackfoot.

I don't think Lloyd's of London would insure this mouth.

When I was almost 13 I was ripe for religion. I was actually just plain ripe.

There were no bigger stars in the new evangelism than the Bakkers.

I would never want to hurt anyone by writing a book.

I once said the Queen of England could use some fashion advice.

Why do I pray? Because I never know what's going to pop out of my mouth.

I felt no stigma whatsoever in becoming the third Mrs. Gifford.

I sang with Anita Bryant in the Southern Baptist churches.

We're imperfect people trapped in an imperfect world until we get to that place beyond.

Other kids did drugs; I did crafts. I never knew where I fit in.

If you settle for what you've got, you deserve what you get.

I did work out every day. I needed it to have the endurance to do what needed to be done and not get hurt. I have such a new respect for action stars now.

I mean the only thing that is hopefully good about us is after the arguments we can actually still face each other the next day or the day after and talk about something else and sort of get over it.

My favorite singer to this day is Nat King Cole. I've tried to emulate his phrasing. It is so absolutely beautiful to listen to his lovely voice.

I want to have babies one day but not right now. When I do it I want to do it really well. I want it to be my best project in life.

I think I've become a much better singer and a much better player. Years and years of playing a couple of hours every day will do that.

I am tomorrow, or some future day, what I establish today. I am today what I established yesterday or some previous day.

I just wrote one song at a time. Kinda like an alcoholic. One day at a time.

Working mothers do an hour more per day than working fathers do and working mothers do on average an hour more per day with the kids than working fathers do.

When it is time to get to work, I go away completely and don't do anything except the work. And that can be 16 hours a day.

George Pal had total control, and he was there on the set every day. You never met a more charming man in your entire lifetime - what a lovely gentleman.

I'll tell you what I did need to learn was tolerance, and I think I've been actually given a daily opportunity to practice that, and it's - it's - and I know that that sounds almost like a backhanded slap, and it is in a way because I haven't been successful at it every day.

Since the beginning, I always loved the game. When you grow up in Montreal, one day you want to be a professional hockey player. When I was six or seven, I knew that was what I wanted.

Depending on what day of the week it is and what time of the month it is, I'm a good friend or not a good friend. I'm more or less a good mom or not a good mom, more or less a good mate or not a good mate. That's just life, whether or not you're public.
