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.

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.

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.

DJs and people in the street know what they like.

People who keep stiff upper lips find that it's damn hard to smile.

Some people are directors and I think they should stay behind the camera.

We dominated Survivor - there is no way we would not dominate that, too. I can see it already, us making deals with people. That's the best part, and with the Race, it would be even more fun because I've got a lot of tricks up my sleeve.

I'm getting a wider circle of fans now. More women, more middle class people.

We must support initiatives that provide clear, concrete measures and milestones that our troops need for defeating the insurgency, building up Iraqi security forces, and handing over Iraq to the Iraqi people.

Well concerning the world records that I did, I think it helps a lot to me, yeah. I think it's a very individual thing because I heard some people say, like, oh I don't like it at all. But I definitely, for me it really made a big difference.

My goal is, of course, for this show to do well, and I would love it if people liked it.
