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

We show girls were forced to live in whorehouses in each town, no other accommodations being available.

I still have horrible luck with girls.

Every time the guys were knocked out by my guitar playing and the girls were knocked out by the type of songs I did. That set us apart from the average blues band.

I miss Saturday morning, rolling out of bed, not shaving, getting into my car with my girls, driving to the supermarket, squeezing the fruit, getting my car washed, taking walks.

I don't like going to the mall. I'm not really like the other girls. I just like to go out on the golf course and play. Golf is fun and feels really good.
