“The beauty of fragrance is that it speaks to your heart and hopefully someone else’s.”

You can be fat and still be sexy . It all depends on how you feel about yourself.

Now is the time for guts and guile.

I’ve always admitted that I’m ruled by my passions.

Big girls need big diamonds.

Sometimes I think we know too much about our idols and that spoils the dream.

The things that are important to me – being a mother, a businesswoman, an activist – are all things that were borne out of great passion.

Everything makes me nervous – except making films.

I don’t have a short temper, I just have a quick reaction to bullshit.

Just in case you get pneumonia or die. The dangerous bits are always the last days of shooting.

I gave a very dear friend of mine my humanitarian award. Because you don’t need an award to be, or not be, a humanitarian.

I use my fame now when I want to help a cause or other people.

I’ve never thought of my jewelry as trophies. I’m here to take care of it and to love it, for we are only temporary custodians of beauty.

I want it all quickly ’cause I don’t want God to stop and think and wonder if I’m getting more than my share.

Money is the best deodorant.

You find out who your real friends are when you’re involved in a scandal.

You can’t choose between right and wrong by taking a census.

There are no beautiful surfaces without a terrible depth.

Nature gives you the face you have at twenty; it is up to you to merit the face you have at fifty.

Keep smiling, because life is a beautiful thing and there’s so much to smile about.

Nothing more beautiful than taking a nap with my children.

That which is really beautiful has no need of anything; not more than law, not more than truth, not more than benevolence or modesty.

To have beautiful lips, say beautiful things. To have beautiful eyes, look at people and see the good in them.

One of the most beautiful things in the world is seeing a mommy with her kids. There’s nothing more beautiful, nothing more sublime.

Beauty of style and harmony and grace and good rhythm depend on simplicity.
