You don't get older, you get better.

I'm a virgin and I brought up all my children to be the same.

I've always been the breadwinner and men don't like that. They turn on you. They bite the hand that feeds them. Eventually, too, they become very jealous of the love one has with an audience.

I think men are afraid to be with a successful woman, because we are terribly strong, we know what we want and we are not fragile enough.

You don't get older, you get better.

Diamonds never leave you... men do!

No wedding bells for me anymore. I've been happily married to my profession for years.

It's hard for a man to live with a successful woman - they seem to resent you so much. Very few men are generous enough to accept success in their women.

I hate it when people come up to me when I'm eating.

I decided to retire from show business at the age of 17, because I didn't like it a bit.

I learned by standing in the wings and watching established acts on stage.

I was a wild kid. I was left to climb trees. And you know those railways logs, they piled them up, six feet apart, and I'd jump from one to the other. Without a safety net! I was an incredible tomboy.

I'm always being asked if I watch 'The X Factor,' and I do from time to time. I know it makes for great TV and that Simon Cowell has a real gift.

I'm too busy putting my energies into my performance to be a diva.

When I started singing, I couldn't be shut up.

When you live in a safe place like Monte Carlo, you can walk home at any time of the night and you don't have to worry. I don't feel at risk there. If I drive myself, I can leave the car doors unlocked.

You want success, and then when you do get it, you don't want it because of the attention.

You dont get older you get better.

If there is a better singer in England than Craig David, then I am Margaret Thatcher.

I quit high school on my birthday. It was my senior year and I didn't see the point. This was 1962, and I was ready to make music.

It's kind of surprising that you could just open up a site and let people work.

Often one of the stumbling blocks to living a simpler life is our inability or unwillingness to change how we play some of the games that got us into these complicated lives in the first place.

Michael Landon was the biggest influence. As a child, I watched him write, direct, star, and produce a TV show every week. He showed me what was possible.

I have learned things in the dark that I could never have learned in the light things that have saved my life over and over again so that there is really only one logical conclusion. I need darkness as much as I need light.

Why should we put ourselves out of our way to do anything for posterity? For what has posterity ever done for us?

I received my high school baccalaureate diploma in Latin and Science in 1928, then my two baccalaureate diplomas in Mathematics and Philosophy in 1929.

In Endless Quest books, you start the plot, and the character has to make choices. Then you have to write one choice over here, one choice over there. The author might get one or two choices out.

Ecosystems are holy. The word "environmental" is a deadly compromise itself. It's a policy word that lives only in the head, and barely there.

I'm a huge fan of 'The Odd Couple,' yes, and any comparisons to Tony Randall and or Jack Lemmon are completely welcome. I kind of try to channel those guys, and then add my own neuroses, too.

Who cares and remembers if my last film was a success? I need to work harder.

You are never really playing an opponent. You are playing yourself, your own highest standards, and when you reach your limits, that is real joy.

One of my thoughts on the back nine was 'I don't know how Tiger has won 14 of these things,' I couldn't feel my legs on the back nine.

Fifty percent of people won't vote, and fifty percent don't read newspapers. I hope it's the same fifty percent.

I felt impelled to write. It felt demonic, and I wanted to improve, the way some people habitually pick up a guitar and get better at playing it and making up songs.

Earth is here so kind, that just tickle her with a hoe and she laughs with a harvest.

You life is full of purpose. Push past the set back and press into the set up.

I try to make fun of everyone as often as possible, especially minorities.

I never vote for anyone. I always vote against.

I might be needy, competitive and desperate but it's far better than being wet.

Dreams are the language of God.

I don't know what the problem with Capitol is. Some one's got to wake 'em up. Prod 'em a little bit.
