I love my family very much. I wish I could see them a little more often than I do. But we understand because we're a show business family and we all work.

I have never once regretted missing a business opportunity so that I could be with my children and grandchildren.

I worked hard all my life as far as this music business. I dreamed of the day when I could go to New York and feel comfortable and they could come out here and be comfortable.

Only a monopolist could study a business and ruin it by giving away products.

What's the subject of life - to get rich? All of those fellows out there getting rich could be dancing around the real subject of life.

All I watch is the Food Network. I took a cheesemaking class a few weeks ago and I told my family and friends to only get me kitchen stuff on my birthday. I'm into every kind of cookbook and anything by Anthony Bourdain. I'd love to own a restaurant if I could find the right chef.

I started running around my 30th birthday. I wanted to lose weight I didn't anticipate the serenity. Being in motion suddenly my body was busy and so my head could work out some issues I had swept under a carpet of wine and cheese. Good therapy that's a good run.

All my favorite stars my family and my friends are here. I'm having the happiest birthday that an 18-year-old girl could ever have.

I trained to be a priest - started to. I went to seminary school when I was 11. I wanted to be a priest but when they told me I could never have sex not even on my birthday I changed my mind.

Mum loves me being famous! She is so excited and proud as she had me so young and couldn't support me so I am living her dream it's sweeter for both of us. It's her 40th birthday soon and I'm going to buy her 40 presents.

It was my 16th birthday - my mom and dad gave me my Goya classical guitar that day. I sat down wrote this song and I just knew that that was the only thing I could ever really do - write songs and sing them to people.

I used to be good with kids but as I get older I'm grumpy and terrible with them. As for doing a gig at a 6-year old's birthday party you couldn't pay me enough.

I think at a child's birth if a mother could ask a fairy godmother to endow it with the most useful gift that gift should be curiosity.

My father gave me the greatest gift anyone could give another person he believed in me.

If being an attractive woman got you attention for directing then the entire 'best director' category would be comprised of models. To me that is just the most ludicrous connection that you could make.

The cat could very well be man's best friend but would never stoop to admitting it.

Some of my best friends are Venture Capitalists but let's face it a hamster with Alzheimer's could make those kind of numbers. It's great work if you can get it.

A visitor from Mars could easily pick out the civilized nations. They have the best implements of war.

As soon as someone tells me: 'You're rather sexy ' I wish I could disappear. If somebody says: 'You were voted the world's sexiest man ' I have no idea what that means. How do I respond? 'Thank you' is the best you can do. George Clooney is the world's sexiest man anyway.

I stood up as best I could to their disgusting stupidity and brutality but I did not of course manage to beat them at their own game. It was a fight to the bitter end one in which I was not defending ideals or beliefs but simply my own self.

One of the best things to come out of the home computer revolution could be the general and widespread understanding of how severely limited logic really is.

I just need to know that I did the very best I could and that I was true to myself.

I would like to be remembered as someone who did the best she could with the talent she had.

Holidays are the best. I couldn't imagine being from a small family.
