Being famous hasn't changed my perception of myself - I've just grown up.

Everybody has a bad hair day, but us girls still like to be told we look nice even if we don't feel like we do.

A girl's got to do what she's got to do to make somebody pay her a compliment. If that means moaning 'til the cows come home, then so be it.

I don't shop because I need something, I just shop for shopping's sake.

It's quite nice to have something where you can be a bit naughty if you have a twinkle in your eye and you can get away with things a bit more and that's what 'The Choice' is about.

As long as you smile, have sparkly eyes and stick your shoulders back, nobody's going to notice your bum or your waist or your feet, for that matter.

My friend made me a leather dress for the MTV awards. It gives you confidence, wearing something you love.

I love bold, colorful party dresses because they don't need accessories. Just throw one on and you're done.

I hate last-minute shopping, it's always unsuccessful.

I enjoyed school, I was a bit of a square. I did very well in exams. I was quite lucky I was academic.

It's great to admire other people's fashion choices, but I don't think you should idolise anyone.

Procreation annihilates eternity.

Allow your pain to cleanse you and burn away what needs to die.

I am happier when I love than when I am loved. I adore my husband, my son, my grandchildren, my mother, my dog, and frankly, I don't know if they even like me. But who cares? Loving them is my joy.

Law should be like death, which spares no one.

I do not want to see perpetual warfare in the Middle East.

I believe that everything in life happens for a reason.

Blindness is an unfortunate handicap but true vision does not require the eyes.

Winter giveth the fields, and the trees so old, their beards of icicles and snow.

In an age of militant mediocrity, an 'extremist' is anyone who takes a position.

Time is like a fashionable host That slightly shakes his parting guest by the hand, And with his arm outstretch'd, as he would fly, Grasps in the comer.
