“If you want to change attitudes, start with a change in behavior.”

Dressing up is a bore. At a certain age, you decorate yourself to attract the opposite sex, and at a certain age, I did that. But I’m past that age.

Acting is the perfect idiot’s profession.

I like to move fast, and wearing high heels was tough, and low heels with a skirt is unattractive. So pants took over.

If you have to support yourself, you had bloody well better find some way that is going to be interesting.

Only when a woman decides not to have children, can a woman live like a man. That’s what I’ve done.

Enemies are so stimulating.

Sometimes I wonder if men and women really suit each other. Perhaps they should live next door and just visit now and then.

The only time I am ever miserable is when I do something just for the money.

You learn in life that the only person you can really correct and change is yourself.

Love has nothing to do with what you are expecting to get — only what you are expecting to give — which is everything. What you will receive in return varies. But it really has no connection with what you give. You give because you love and cannot help giving.

A boy sows a wild oat or two, the world winks. A girl does the same — scandal.

I was brought up by two extremely intelligent people who gave me the greatest gift that man can give anyone, and that is freedom from fear.

I’ve always thought men and women are not too well suited to each other. It’s inevitable that they should come together, but, again, how well suited are they to live together in the same house?

You don’t have to have a reason to feel good, you’re alive; you can feel good for no reason at all!

Dare to think for yourself.

They laugh at me because I’m different; I laugh at them because they’re all the same.

Everyone looks at your watch and it represents who you are, your values and your personal style.

The only thing more contagious than a good attitude is a bad one.

Don’t lower your standards for anything or anyone.

All I can do is follow my instincts, because I’ll never please everyone.

Whatever it is, I’m against it.
