Something always made me save myself. Either the Betty Ford Center or going onstage to perform in the theater when many people didn't think I could do it.

I believe in mind over matter and doing anything you set your mind on.

I sweat real sweat and I shake real shakes.

Humility, never me; it is a characteristic I expect to find in other people.

I'm a survivor - a living example of what people can go through and survive.

I always wanted to have a fragrance, and I always wanted to be able to connect with people in ways other than through film.

It is strange that the years teach us patience; that the shorter our time, the greater our capacity for waiting.
