“That’s precisely the question everyone should be asking-why the hell not? – Why not you, why not now.”

There are two components that are fundamental to enjoy life and feel good about yourself: continual learning and service.

Simplicity requires ruthlessness.

What we fear doing most is usually what we most need to do.

I have plenty of money to do what I want to do, and I have the relationships.

For uncommon solutions, you have to look in uncommon places.

There is always more information than attention.

Creating demand is hard. Filling demand is easier. Don’t create a product, then seek someone to sell it to. Find a market – define your customers – then find or develop a product for them.

Short, sweet, and to the point. Clear writing, and therefore clear commands, comes from clear thinking. Think simple.

Being able to quit things that don’t work is integral to being a winner.

Emphasize strengths, don’t fix weaknesses.

Ninety-nine percent of people believe they can’t do great things, so they aim for mediocrity.

Focus on impact, not approval. If you believe you can change the world, which I hope you do, do what you believe is right and expect resistance and expect attackers. Keep calm and carry on!

Slowing down doesn’t mean accomplishing less; it means cutting out counterproductive distractions and the perception of being rushed.

The only rules and limits are those we set for ourselves.

Learn to ask, “If this is the only thing I accomplish today, will I be satisfied with my day?”

The best way to counter-attack a hater is to make it blatantly obvious that their attack has had no impact on you.

I believe that I am in hell, therefore I am there.

You stars that reigned at my nativity, whose influence hath allotted death and hell.

If I had my life to live over again, I’d live it the same way. Maybe a few changes here or there, but nothing special. The truth is, honey, I’ve enjoyed my life. I’ve had a hell of a good time.

When the one you love is in love with someone else, don’t you know it’s torture, I mean it’s living hell.

Meanwhile the Adversary of God and man, Satan with thoughts inflamed of highest design, Puts on swift wings, and towards the gates of hell Explores his solitary flight.

Oh, what the hell did I know? I went to the set the first day in full makeup and the director told me to take it off. So I did the film without makeup. I had nothing to do with anything I did. I never understood why I was so famous.

I’ve been around long enough for people to know who I am and what my contributions are. They know me as more than just an artist. I think they know me as a woman as well.

I was lazy. I would have been a hell of a lot better actress had I taken it more seriously. I never had the proper respect for acting. Quite often, I learned my lines on the way to the studio.
