I decided, very early on, just to accept life unconditionally; I never expected it to do anything special for me, yet I seemed to accomplish far more than I had ever hoped. Most of the time it just happened to me without my ever seeking it.

I never think of myself as an icon. What is in other people's minds is not in my mind. I just do my thing.

My look is attainable. Women can look like Audrey Hepburn by flipping out their hair, buying the large sunglasses, and the little sleeveless dresses.

I don't believe in collective guilt, but I do believe in collective responsibility.

The 'Third World' is a term I don't like very much, because we're all one world. I want people to know that the largest part of humanity is suffering.

Take care of the small circle around you. When you have succeeded with them, then move outwards, one small step at a time.

I love people who make me laugh. I honestly think it's the thing I like most, to laugh. It cures a multitude of ills. It's probably the most important thing in a person.
