I'm a song-and-dance girl. I can act enough to get by. But that's the limit of my talents.

I have got two reasons for success and I'm standing on both of them.

The woman's vision is deep reaching, the man's far reaching. With the man the world is his heart, with the woman the heart is her world.

The practice of putting women on pedestals began to die out when it was discovered that they could give better orders from there.

As a dancer I couldn't outdance Ginger Rogers or Eleanor Powell. As a singer I'm no rival to Doris Day. As an actress I don't take myself seriously...I'm the girl the truck drivers love.

You're better off betting on a horse than betting on a man. A horse may not be able to hold you tight, but he doesn't wanna wander from the stable at night.

I'm strictly an enlisted man's girl.

The woman's vision is deep-reaching, the man's far-reaching.

It don't matter what happens, if you're only srong and have great courage.

Stop the tape, cut the paper! I will just write another poem and grab a microphone and push record again!

After a kiss like that, he should know I’m the one. He should be down on his knees begging me to marry him and have his little Hottie babies.

Imperfection is underrated. Perfection is overrated.

A bird without wings and a man without art are both condemned to wander in low places

The kingdom of God is like a mustard seed. It happens quietly. It happens inevitably. Don’t underestimate God’s power.

When I got home, I was trying to figure out how to be home. Like, be home in a sense that had nothing to do with music.

I have come to believe that this life I'm wearing will never really fit.

I've consciously tried to be provocative and disturbing.

Amidst one's daily clutter, one doesn't usually reflect on the splendour of being free because - naturally - one has to get on with the business of living.
