I'm interested in longevity, timelessness, style - not fashion.

I don't like it when a woman looks like a fashion victim.

Enjoy your family. Do things that you like to do. Stay strong. That's the secret to remaining happy.

When friends enter a home, they sense its personality and character, the family's style of living - these elements make a house come alive with a sense of identity, a sense of energy, enthusiasm, and warmth , declaring: "This is how we are; this is how we live."

I think I'm very fortunate to be born in America. And lucky to be able to have lived and had the opportunity to do what I want to do.

My father was an artist. When life was harder and he couldn't get jobs, he painted houses, but he was artistic. When I went to see his work, it was special. Somewhere along the line, I felt I was special. I didn't know why.

I'm a fan of people that have quality, that do what they do and that are not into the showbiz.
