If I have someone who believes in me, I can move mountains.

You can't just sit there and wait for people to give you that golden dream. You've got to get out there and make it happen for yourself.

I listen to most everything that's out there because I need to stay aware of what's happening in the industry.

My life has often been described as 'from rags to riches' but in fact, the Ross's were never raggedy.

My name, Diana Ross, is my name and nobody should be able to use that for exploitative purposes but me.

My problem is that people have been writing books about me.A lot of things that people write about you are incorrect, but you don't fight about it.

I try to choose the songs that really are basically coming from my heart. I think that through the songs that I select, people know what's going on in my life.
