I'm liking the idea more and more of just standing up with a microphone and talking.

You're so consumed with how much you get, you waste your time with hate and regret.

I refuse to act the way someone expects me to.

I guess some people are brilliant enough to be brilliant on their own and never doubt anything and come up with fabulous things. But I think it's good to get into arguments with people and have them say, 'That sucks' or 'You're crazy' or 'That's cheesy' or 'What do you think of this?'

I hadn't been onstage in a while. The last time was pre-children. And before I went on [at Roseland], my kids were backstage, and I thought, This isn't how I usually do it. I've got kids, and I'm thinking, This is weird. It's weird juggling children on your knee while you're in your rhinestone outfit. And I'm thinking, Okay, I'm gonna go out and do a show and I'm gonna be Superwoman! But I'm not really, `cause I'm a mom. It's all very strange.

All you need is your own imagination. So use it that's what it's for.

Isn't it amazing that there are laws of the universe that you can actually find out about, live your life according to and change the world for the better?
