You can't be beautiful and hate because hate is a corroding disease and affects the way you look. ... You can't hide it - ever. It shows in your eyes. It warps your expression. It affects your character, your personality.

You cannot be beautiful and hate.

I don't look upon my divorces as mistakes. Those marriages were right for the Bess that made that decision at that time.

I never like other people to clean for me. I don't want them to invade my own privacy.

I really don't like talking about diets.

Men go after me, and I choose among them.

I've lived through a lifetime of crises and survived.
