Oh God, don't envy me, I have my own pains.

You don't ask a man, 'Do you want to be in control [of your job]?' You assume he wants control. Why would a woman be any different?

There is nothing more important in life than love.

I hated singing. I wanted to be an actress. But I don't think I'd have made it any other way.

It’s like an American tradition. A person gets successful and then he’s supposed to change for the worse. It’s silly.

I only began to sing because I couldn't get a job as an actress.

I don't know why it is that we need to denigrate, to knock down. It's so sick.
