It's a dirty job being ridiculous, but I'll do it

When I grew up, it was a time when women were just supposed to be cute and not have many opinions. My mother and her friends were quite different. They were all the most beautiful women you've ever seen ... and they were very strong women.

Women, unlike most men, are able to accept mystery, accept whatever comes to them - even if it's not logical.

You've probably noticed already that I'm dressed like a grown-up... I apologize to the Academy, and I promise that I will never do it again.

I've been up and down so many times that I feel as if I'm in a revolving door.

Elvis was the first person in music that I really identified with.

One thing about prejudices -- once you break one of them, you're screwed, because then they all have got to go.
