They're paying me an outrageous sum of money; $40,000 a week, which is totally silly.

My role in the Mamas and Papas was basically just to sing.

I would say the world's in terrible shape, but I'm afraid the world would say, "Look who's talking".

I've always been so apathetic. I figured, OK, maybe the world is going to fall down around me. Now I want to make a better world... that's motherhood.

Leadership is helping yourself and other people achieve goals. The ability to direct your life to get the results you want is leadership.

My advice is precisely the advice my mother gave me. If you believe you have talent, the next thing you must have is determination. If you keep working, keep striving, and try always to move forward a little bit with every job you do, you'll eventually make it. And I believe that!
