My dreams have become puny with the reality my life has become.

In the material world, where everything is valued, when you commit yourself to God, beauty and love, it can be mistaken for extravagance.

The problems with First Ladies is that you have to set the standard. My role is to be both star and slave.

I get so tired listening to one million dollars here, one million dollars there, it's so petty.

Beauty is not extravagance; beauty is life.

People say I'm extravagant because I want to be surrounded by beauty. But tell me, who wants to be surrounded by garbage?

My husband does not like me to give interviews because I say too much. No talk, no trouble.
