To keep your character intact you cannot stoop to filthy acts. It makes it easier to stoop the next time.

Being a housewife and a mother is the biggest job in the world, but if it doesn't interest you, don't do it - I would have made a terrible mother.

We are taught you must blame your father, your sisters, your brothers, the school, the teachers - but never blame yourself. It's never your fault. But it's always your fault, because if you wanted to change you're the one who has got to change.

Silence the artist and you have silenced the most articulate voice the people have.

You learn in life that the only person you can really correct and change is yourself.

I've always thought men and women are not too well suited to each other. It's inevitable that they should come together, but, again, how well suited are they to live together in the same house?

I find a woman's point of view much grander and finer than a man's.
