Not everybody is cookie-cutter. You just can't be. There are too many variables in life.

I'm somebody who can absorb a lot.

People want to be famous, they want to be loved, they want to be accepted. They want to push aside their past and the things that have been embarrassing to them.

In the late '60s and '70s, when feminism was on the up sweep, there was an awareness of things that we're losing again.

I was really going through a transition in my life. I was tired of feeling victimized by my career.

I've always gotten myself overly involved in supporting other women who've not always been as supportive in return.

I'm not saying I'm some high priestess. I do things, I'm sure, that are damaging, but it's certainly not on purpose.
