I'm not eager to jump into marriage again. I'm in the corner right now, wearing my dunce cap. That area is obviously a nightmare.

I'm a hypochondriac. Yesterday it was brain damage from the vodka the night before. Today, heart attack - my arm and chest started hurting at the same time.

I'm more of a tomboy than anything and then you see your name on these Top 50 Most Beautiful People lists and you're like, 'What?'

I'll say it loud and say it proud. I'm completely insane.

Something happens to people around fame and power and money - it can bring out the worst and best in people; it's a monster you have to tame.

I can say opportunity is the time, if you have it, you can get anything

On some days it felt like we owned the Earth, and the only place left to expand to was the next planet down the line.

If you are divided from your body you are also divided from the body of the world, which then appears to be other than you or separate from you, rather than the living continuum to which you belong.

I am hoping very much to get re-elected but it is going to be a tough fight.

I'm certainly not a linguist. I learned what languages I could learn in order to read books and I can't really speak them. I couldn't have stayed out of jail in most of them.

It is useless for the sheep to pass resolutions in favor of vegetarianism, while the wolf remains of a different opinion.
