Oftentimes, what you wind up learning is very different than what you expect.

You cannot live your life to please others. The choice must be yours.

Whatever you are made of, be the best of that.

A man told me that for a woman, I was very opinionated. I said, 'for a man you're kind of ignorant'.

My life and my legs have been an open book.

I like the tradition of the Oscars. I like that some of the greatest comedians ever have hosted the show.

Life is much different from the days when there were lilies in my mother’s garden, and all my secrets fit into a paper cup.

I would prefer a thousand times to receive reproofs than to give them to others.
