The most likely moment for something incredible to happen to me was the moment I was most certain nothing ever would.

It's like if people don't see you on TV every day, they think you're in cryogenics somewhere.

About the time I turned 50, I experienced the profound biological change that often accompanies women at that age. Also, I put two kids in college and lost both of my parents, so I'm no longer somebody's daughter.

Nobody calls me silly. That is not a word that applies to me.

I've always had a lot of ambivalence about fame and celebrity.

Twins are a high-risk pregnancy, by definition. The quieter I am, the longer I can keep them growing.

My parents were terrific - mother was a church organist and my father was probably the most respected person in our church outside of the minister and sometimes maybe that much. The neighbors all called him - a gentleman.
