I've learned through experience that life is never that bad. The secret is just paying attention to how you feel and not letting anyone else dictate what in your heart you know is right.

Growing up, all I did was work and vacation, but I loved it, no one pushed me into anything. The thing was I developed no special skills. I don't have any resentment because I am a performer and I've always felt that, but it did take its toll socially.

People have an awful lot of problems that society has put on them and a lot to work through because of it.

I've got to be honest, there's no pleasure when you're working.

With women and women, I think there's an understanding. Nobody knows what a woman feels or experiences but another woman. We are the nurturers, and there are times when we need to be nurtured.

I have been sober for the longest time. Oh, it's over a decade now. No joke.

I'm okay in my skin, you know... I'm okay with who I am.
