I have set a standard, and I'm going to stick to the standard. I may have been able to grow faster and maybe my business could have been bigger, but because I really feel very serious about my subject, I really want to be hands-on.

I'm never sick. Why get sick? It's a waste of time.

I love Champagne and I love to drink it out of any kind of beautiful glass.

I love dessert. I can't be guilty about it because I have to taste everything. I experiment.

You have to focus on what's important to you and go for it. But don't stab people in the back. It poisons your whole life if you're like that.

I am not a rock star or a movie star; I'm a businessperson. I definitely know who my friends are. I'm much more open and trusting than, say, my daughter is.

As with all my new pets, I gently bit each kitten on the face. This is how I let my animals know that I am now their mother.
