I've always preferred animals to little girls or boys. I had my first horse - actually it was a Newfoundland pony - when I was three, and I loved riding, without anyone shackling me - riding bareback as fast as I could.

I never face the day without perfume.

I, along with the critics, have never taken myself very seriously.

Every breath you take today should be with someone else in mind.

You can't choose between right and wrong by taking a census.

I adore wearing gems, but not because they are mine. You can't possess radiance, you can only admire it.

When you're older, you'll appreciate the advantages of sleeping alone.
