[On God:] She makes everything possible.

I worked with my parents on the stage in production numbers since I was 4, but I never really gave much thought to being a performer on my own until I was 12 or 13.

I couldn't do anything. I'd work in a department store for a couple of weeks, but I couldn't hack it. I couldn't even type! I had no skills whatsoever outside of show business.

I am woman, hear me roar.

I'm a very private person, and when I leave the stage, I leave the stage.

Depression, as far as I'm concerned, is just a waste of time.

There is a wealth of twentieth century music that is being re-discovered by a generation that hasnt heard it.
