Nobody would know it to look at me, but the movies I liked as a kid were musicals - 'All That Jazz, ' 'Hair, ' 'Fame, ' 'Annie, ' all that stuff - that's where my little youthful imagination was.

I kind of imagine myself at eighty, a cat lady.

Dreams, they're what sets us apart from being mere a brain and a body.

Like everybody I have many different sides.

Adults are just children sometimes. But evil, hurt children.

Because I'm not perfect looking, I get to play better roles.

My focus, my life, my world is now. You just can't plan the future.

What I get in rock 'n' roll that I don't get in movies is that connection with people. With music it's instantaneous, and just to watch people light up, it's really amazing. I love that connection.

Being beautiful can be a curse, especially if you want to be an artist and create.

The worst thing you can do to a kid is tell them that their dreams are invalid.

Rock'n'roll to me is a rebellion against the sterile pedestal culture of movies.

Let’s not be too harsh where poets are concerned. They have to live in no-man’s-land, halfway between dreams and reality.

Can you imagine, in 2030, taking a space cruise on the very ship that carried the first human beings to Mars? I can't believe that people wouldn't line up for that possibility.

In a few breaths' time I will speak some sad words to you. But you must hear them the same way we have agreed to see scars now. Sad words are just another beauty.

It's a myth that the border can't be enforced. It can be enforced.

It takes leadership to improve safety.

Like most people, I have no wish to live in a community organized by community organizers.

Sports are, and should be, a joy. And it delights me that the joy I felt through the years of broadcasting games was projected onto the audience.

Everything is nothing, and nothing is everything.

After all these years of creating my collections, I still doubt my decision even until the last minute before the fashion show, I keep questioning myself and wondering if I did the right thing.

The problem with doing commercials is that the only thing good enough for me to sell is myself, and I stopped doing that once I kicked my coke habit.
