I start the day with the intention of doing 4,000 sit-ups but then have to work.

All I want to do really is get married and be a matriarch.

A Local Government Stationery Store is something to behold. It's like walking through the back of a cupboard into a really dull Narnia.

I always carry a pair of scissors around with me to cut things out of magazines.

I would love to have been around in the Keystone Studios days.

I wasn't hugely popular at school. In fact, I was bullied at school.

When I'm a brunette, it's four times harder to hail a taxi. Then I go blonde again, and suddenly there are taxis everywhere.

I'm sorry to say I'm very lizard-like. My skin is dry, so covering my face in greasy antioxidants is a better alternative.

If you get 10,000 guys to put their ideal woman into a computer, it still comes out looking like Angelina Jolie.

I can make a virtue of slapdash. Slapdash can give you courage.

I definitely used to write a lot at school. Comic poetry and drawings about people.

Husbands are the leftovers of a stew called love –she thought—, and with hair on their faces.

Yet all three animals were keyed to a tenseness of living that was almost painful, and scarcely ever would it come to them to be more alive than they were then in their seeming petrifaction.

When I was a kid, I thought I was going to be an architect, because when I was 12 years old I had a guidance counselor that convinced me that that was the best career choice for me.

Anyone can do running. Running should be easy. It should be fun. It should include everyone. It shouldn't be a punishment for eating cheesecake, which is what we've turned it into.

I buy about $1,500 worth of papers every month. Not that I trust them. I'm looking for the crack in the fabric.

Everything that exists is born for no reason, carries on living through weakness, and dies by accident

It's something I worry about when I'm working out. I don't want to get too fit. Because I don't want the new DaVinci of this Millennium to say, "You. I have found my muse. I have to sculpt you."

The happier people can be, the unhappier they are.

Above all avoid taking the advice of men who have no brains and do not know what they are talking about.

My sense of humor will always stand in the way of my seeing myself, my family, my race or my nation as the whole intent of the universe.
