I always try to balance the light with the heavy – a few tears of human spirit in with the sequins and the fringes.

Bette Midler

Enough about me. What do you think about me?
BETTE MIDLER

About Enough Thinking
Image is everything, and the voice or the idea or the song is hardly anything at all. Half the time the person isn’t even doing the singing. I’m a bit cynical about this [music] business.
BETTE MIDLER

Ideas Song Voice
Make sure your life is a rare entertainment! It doesn’t take anything drastic. You needn’t be gorgeous or wealthy or smart, just very enthusiastic!
BETTE MIDLER

Entertainment Life Smart
A person’s life is a journey, a road. Sometimes you go off the road and sometimes you stay on all the way through. But you are the only one on that road. It’s your road.
BETTE MIDLER

Journey Sometimes Way
When I finally did stop and look at my life, I realized that I had done what I’d set out to do. In my pitiful little way, I had climbed the mountain I had chosen. And there I was, on top.

Done Looks Mountain
We’re all divine, but I was the only one who had the nerve to call myself that.
BETTE MIDLER

Divine Myself Nerves
For days on end, I would hardly speak, and when I did only the vilest sort of gibberish would spout forth. I became morose and fat. Unapproachable, except when eating – and then only by waiters.
BETTE MIDLER

Depression Eating Speak
Most people are walking around the city like corpses; they aren’t alive enough to notice the trash. They come from other places and they see it as a big garbage dump.
BETTE MIDLER

Cities People Want
It’s a different world now: Stars come and go quickly, and there are so many of them. I read a statistic that all the record companies combined used to put out around 3,000 albums in a year. Now they put out something like 30,000!
BETTE MIDLER

Different Stars Years
I have my standards. They’re low, but I have them.
BETTE MIDLER

Low Lows Standards
If you’re passionate about something, then you should pick up your flag and run with it.
BETTE MIDLER

Flag Passionate Running
Some say love, it is a razor that leaves your soul to bleed.
BETTE MIDLER

Broken Heart Love Soul
Without passion, the powers-that-be can run roughshod over you.
BETTE MIDLER

Over You Passion Running
Lay a foundation – get my foot in the door, and then undoubtedly, of course, I would be offered great roles as soon as I grew up enough to handle them.
BETTE MIDLER

Enough Foundation Great Lay
I wouldn’t say I invented tacky, but I definitely brought it to its present high popularity.
BETTE MIDLER

Memorable Women
If they [at the audition] don’t like the way you sound they won’t buy you anyway, ripped dress or no ripped dress, ass hanging out or no ass hanging out.
BETTE MIDLER

Dresses Sound Way
