I was very strongly influenced by women's magazines and I really believed tha a woman could not be married and raise a family and have a successful career all at the same time.

Three-quarters of the world’s population doesn’t have enough to eat!

I think that two people who decide to live together in a marriage situation, they have an obligation to make the marriage work for them.

I did my own music videos, my own TV commercials.

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.

Believe it or not, most people think of me as a recording artist, but actually the way I think of myself and the way I earn my living is as a performing artist.

In the '50s, a lot of girls never saw beyond the wedding day.
