The more independent you want to be, the more generous you must be with yourself as a woman.

Even if your skin is perfect, even if it's glowing and beautiful, electric lights defeat you. They deaden the complexion, make it look drab. They rob you of color...In the evening, you just can't play the natural kid bit, that fresh-scrubbed look.

I didn't know what I wanted to do, but I always knew the woman I wanted to be.

I've never met a woman who is not strong, but sometimes they don't let it out. Then there's a tragedy, and then all of a sudden that strength comes. My message is let the strength come out before the tragedy.

The iPad! What is better designed than that? I read magazines on it, I play Scrabble. I use it for everything.
