Waiting in line for something mundane is very boring. Waiting for my doctor to see me and waiting for my dentist to see me, yes, that is boring.

When I have interns, I always say, 'Handwritten thank-you notes can make a difference.' People remember that - not an e-mail, a handwritten note in an envelope.

I know what it is like to be brought up with unconditional love. In my life that came from my grandmother.

Look at 'American Idol,' which I don't look at. Those winners haven't become household names except for Jennifer Hudson, and she was a reject. You can't aim to be a household name. You just have to be successful.

In my day you didn't speak until spoken to.

I have 4 bedrooms in my house. 1 is for guests, the other 3 are for closets.

I'm so sick of mermaid dresses, trains, borrowed bling-bling, and a pose.
