I enjoy speaking to other women about turning 50, and how we can enjoy it, and how we can explore it.

I'm about to become a member of the Chemists Society of America. I'm very proud of that.

There came a moment in my life when I realized that I had stepped into another part of my life. I used to walk into a room full of people and think, do they like me? And one day I walk in and I thought, do I like them?

When I don't plumb the depths or the opportunities of each day, I don't have joy.

Success doesn't mean that you are healthy, success doesn't mean that you're happy, success doesn't mean that you're rested. Success really doesn't mean that you look good, or feel good, or are good.

Ignorance is not bliss, but in my case, that was.

There are two things in life that I really wanted to do: be an actress, and to be in skin care, and I've gotten to do both of them.

I grew up thinking that whatever I wanted to do, I could do.

As the years go by, I've added a few pounds on, and I like it. I like it that I look a little softer.

When women work together, it's a bond unlike any other.

Unless we keep this planet healthy, everything else is for naught.

I became so consumed with trying to live up to what the public expected that I lost myself. I don't know of anyone else who can say this.

When I became a mature woman, I put both feet firmly on the side of maturity.

Victory Over Violence is an organization that was created to help fund shelters for women and children.

I believe that how you feel is very important to how you look - that healthy equals beautiful.

I enjoy speaking to other women about turning 50, and how we can enjoy it, and how we can explore it.

It is so easy to forget that this is good that we're alive. We should be enjoying this gift of being alive.

If wanted to play a sport, I played a sport. If I wanted to do things that many girls born in 1950 didn't do, I did it.

I try to treat people the way I would like to be treated, but I can't worry about what everyone's going to think.

Oprah is so bright, and her intelligence is so piercing that I don't think anyone who spends a few minutes with her isn't struck by that.

Being an agent gave me a great sense of satisfaction.

Don't strive to be perfect. Strive for excellence.

I'm generally competing with the ideal I have set for myself, and I've found that served me very well.

I went to a woman for advice about how to be in business, but I learned a great deal from men.

I was very lucky. My parents raised me in such a way that it never occurred to me that I wasn't equal.

I arrived in California with no job, no car, and no money, but, like millions of other girls, a dream.

I went to find myself and save myself by being an agent.

As long as my body is in shape, my mind is working at its full capacity.

You can't be responsible for the way people respond to you. You're only responsible for yourself.

It used to be you wanted to marry up.

No one can make me work harder than I do, so I'm generally not interested in who I am competing with.

They didn't even like Margaret Thatcher but at least there was Margaret Thatcher. There have been women, you know, Sonia Gandhi for heaven's sakes in India.

Athletes as role models and heroes is a hoax, a sick hoax. The men and women who are fighting in Iraq, they are the true heroes.

On the road to equality there is no better place for blacks to detour around American values than in forgoing its example in the treatment of its women and the organization of its family.

For a man to strike any women is most brutal, and I, as well as everyone else, think this far worse than any attempt to shoot, which, wicked as it is, is at least more comprehensible and more courageous.

Women don't like advice. They don't want you to fix their problems, they just want you to listen.

Oh yeah, I'm a huge romance fan. And some women like action.

When women go wrong, men go right after them.

Clearly no one knows what leadership has gone undiscovered in women of all races, and in black and other minority men.

I figured out it was a social thing, what women were allowed to do. At a very young age, I decided I was not going to follow women's rules.

The greatest public health threat for many American women is the men they live with.

The world over, give a guy money and it goes to drinking, gambling, and women. When you give a woman money, it goes to feeding, clothing, helping people.

I'm looking forward to providing the men of Seattle with an evening where they can kick back, light up a cigar and enjoy a night to themselves. Women, we can't technically keep you out, but please stay at home.
