Honesty makes me feel powerful in a difficult world.

I can't listen to my own voice, I don't like it. You see all your mistakes when you hear your voice. You see all your imperfections.

In my personal life I'm not very tough at all, but in my professional life, having to deal with being a woman in a man's world, I'm really tough. I never back down from a fight or an argument. I'm willing to stand there toe to toe with anyone.

Do you believe in life after love?

At first all I wanted to be was famous; then I realized that fame had nothing to do with talent. I felt that I didn't do anything quite well enough, that I was one of those people who was famous but not very talented. So I said, okay, I'll be the Dinah Shore of the Seventies, on TV all the time but nobody quite knows why.

For someone who likes tattoos, the most precious thing is bare skin.

There is only one value to having the look you have when you are young and no value to the look you have when you are older.
