To be a mother you must be strong. Even if you don't feel it, you have to pretend.

All the cliches of glamorous sophistication have little appeal to me. Do I want to live the British version of 'Dynasty?' No thanks!

When I was young, people were almost identified solely by the kind of music they liked. People fell into categories of who liked what.

I can't see myself just endlessly singing the same songs over and over again.

I am a reluctant celebrity, in some ways.

I've got absolutely no real perception, properly, of time.

I look a lot like my father and his mother.
