I hope one day people don't look at women like they're out of their minds when they want to pick up an instrument and play. And I think we're getting a lot closer to that.

My guitar is not a thing. It is an extension of myself. It is who I am.

You got nothing to lose. You don't lose when you lose fake friends.

Don’t let anyone tell you that you can’t do something. Make your own victories. Make your own mistakes.

Girls have got balls. They're just a little higher up, that's all.

Other people will call me a rebel, but I just feel like I'm living my life and doing what I want to do. Sometimes people call that rebellion, especially when you're a woman.

I think I was born strong-willed. That's not the kind of thing you can learn. The advantage is, you stick to what you believe in and rarely get pushed out of what you want to do.

You want to have butterflies in your stomach, because if you don't, if you walk out onstage complacent, that's not a good thing.

I figured out it was a social thing, what women were allowed to do. At a very young age, I decided I was not going to follow women's rules.

Success isn't one straight line - it's a ladder, and there's always another rung above you to reach out for. Like anything else, there are ups and downs.

I don't give a damn about my reputation. You're living in the past, it's a new generation.

When you go to buy use your eyes not your ears.

Cinema should make you forget you are sitting in a theater.

Okay. I picked up a movie to watch tonight. You can watch it with me if you like. It's a chick movie. Merri Lee said that means girls like it, not that there are small birds in it.

A good style must, first of all, be clear. It must not be mean or above the dignity of the subject. It must be appropriate.

I do not support citizenship for those already here illegally. Those who cut the line and broke our laws as their first act entering this country have foregone that opportunity.

It was sometimes difficult to reconcile a man's talents with his personality.

Mothers and unmarried women and married women, they're all welcomed in the Trump White House, and he's made that very clear to me.

I think that's what being a chef is all about: camaraderie and teamwork. I never feel that it should be so cutthroat that you can't help the other chefs.

It's like obituaries, when you die they finally give you good reviews.

I don't know if you look back on your life and just see successes, but probably the first things that pop up are the regrets.
