A lot of people think this is a goodie two-shoes talking. But we do have a tendency to complain rather than celebrating who we are. I learned at my mother's knee it's better to appreciate what's happening... I think we kind of talk ourselves into the negative sometimes.

Sex is pretty funny, let's face it. And the more seriously we take ourselves, the funnier sex gets, I think.

I may be a senior, but so what? I'm still hot.

I really don't care with whom you sleep. I just care what kind of a decent human being you are.

I think we're losing our sense of humor instead of being able to relax and laugh at ourselves. I don't care whether it's ethnicity, age, sexual orientation, or whose ox is being gored.

Kindness and consideration of somebody besides yourself. I think that keeps you feeling young. I really do.

My mother and dad were big animal lovers, too. I just don't know how I would have lived without animals around me. I'm fascinated by them - both domestic pets and the wild community. They just are the most interesting things in the world to me, and it's made such a difference in my lifetime.
