I feel like a million tonight - but one at a time.

Thank God for the gays. I don't know what would have happened but I know what did happen. Good for them and good for me.

I sold my soul to rock 'n' roll.

I always look old when I work because I get so upset and tense that my face wrinkles up like a prune, I can't stop it.

I've always said we got married because there was nothing on TV.

Some say love it is a river that drowns the tender reeds. Some say love, it is a razor that leaves your heart to bleed. Some say love, it is a hunger, an endless aching need. I say love, it is a flower and you, its only seed.

One of my first role models was Eugene Lang, a wealthy businessman who went back to his elementary school in East Harlem and addressed the sixth-grade class. He looked out at that sea of faces and said, "If any of you wants to go to college, I will pay for it." When I read that, I burst into tears. It was so generous and so basic. Not fluffy. I can't understand why we scrimp on education and shortchange our kids. Why would the citizenry do that to the people who are going to inherit its republic?
