I'm not supposed to say it, but I was not guilty of any crime. I became a target because I was a strong and a rich woman who had been very successful.

Every Thanksgiving table should be blessed with the presence of a long-married pair who bring out the best in each other, are completely enamored despite their differences, and leave every other guest thinking, I’ll have what they’re having. Our holiday pies honor such so there’s a pleasant mix of textures and flavors in every bite. No matter how you slice partnerships, each spotlighting the perfect marriage of crust and filling these six irresistible desserts, there is a whole lot to love.

So the pie isn't perfect? Cut it into wedges. Stay in control, and never panic.

I was a very good cook, and I knew I could build a business.

I don't think there's any company that has the same tools as Martha Stewart Living does, and people know that. They really love the tools and, if you have the tools, you can pretty much do the craft.

I am always asking myself how I can improve the lives of my customers, my colleagues, my shareholders, my family and my friends.

I never pay attention to age or gender. There are just too many other more important things to consider.
