“Gay Liberation? I ain’t against it, it’s just that there’s nothing in it for me.”

I guess I’m larger than life. That’s my problem.

The key to life is accepting challenges. Once someone stops doing this, he’s dead.

Discipline is a symbol of caring to a child.He needs guidance.If there is love, there is no such thing as being too tough with a child. A parent must also not be afraid to hang himself. If you have never been hated by your child, you have never been a parent.

I have eyes like a bullfrog, a neck like an ostrich and long, limp hair. You just have to be good to survive with that equipment.

With the newspaper strike on, I wouldn’t consider dying.

If you want a thing done well, get a couple of old broads to do it.

Basically, I believe the world is a jungle, and if it’s not a bit of a jungle in the home, a child cannot possibly be fit to enter the outside world.

The secret of marriage is: separate bedrooms and separate bathrooms.

I firmly believe, however, that if your children have never hated you, you have failed as a parent.

I wouldn’t piss on Joan Crawford if she were on fire.

Acting should be bigger than life. Scripts should be bigger than life. It should all be bigger than life.

Life is the past, the present and the perhaps.

There comes a time in every woman’s life when the only thing that helps is a glass of champagne.

I will never be below the title.

Yes, burn your bridges.

I often think that a slightly exposed shoulder emerging from a long satin nightgown packs more sex than two naked bodies in bed.

I know where I’m going and I know the truth, and I don’t have to be what you want me to be. I’m free to be what I want.

I’ve found that there is always some beauty left – in nature, sunshine, freedom, in yourself; these can all help you.

What is ominous is the ease with which some people go from saying that they don’t like something to saying that the government should forbid it. When you go down that road, don’t expect freedom to survive very long.

Fear can hold you prisoner. Hope can set you free.

Give the ones you love wings to fly, roots to come back and reasons to stay.

When people made up their minds that they wanted to be free and took action, then there was a change.

You either get tired fighting for peace, or you die.

I fly because it releases my mind from the tyranny of petty things.
