The best way to get husbands to do something is to suggest that perhaps they are too old to do it.

If you're comfortable with yourself-which everyone can get to, to some extent-that's when you start getting into who is your real self.

When times are bad, people like to lose themselves in the sheer glamour of another period: beautiful wardrobes, magnificent meals served in elegant settings.

I'd like to go to another planet, which I might live long enough to accomplish. Just get on a spaceship and go. But not the moon. I don't see any flowers there. The moon is too close. I want to go further.

Dwelling on the negative simply contributes to its power.

I'm very aware, but I'm very naïve. When you are really naïve and expecting safety and expecting the best, you don't feel you're taking risks. You can get smacked a little, but usually it works out pretty well. I would say that, as much as you can instill your open-minded naivety, if you're basically open minded, then you can do damn near anything.

Nothing should be permanent except struggle with the dark side within ourselves.
