Let's love, press your lips to mine. Let's kiss, for that thrill divine.

When you do interviews, you have to talk about yourself - and I like to find out about other people. I am so familiar with everything that I do. Ive said it over and over again. I think it is boring.

And fortunately, I haven't had any problem with my voice. I've been able to sing at a level of consistency that the people are expecting.

I'm just one of the lucky people. I have no other reason for my longevity.

I really, really enjoy music and that's why I do what I do.

Her desire for fame is like her hair. It keeps getting bigger. [on Diana Ross

My favorite singer to this day is Nat King Cole. I've tried to emulate his phrasing. It is so absolutely beautiful to listen to his lovely voice.

I don't feel old, except in the morning once in a while, when I can't turn over properly and say, "What's that? When did that happen?" Our brain doesn't accept that. We're geared to last.

But I am very grateful for my success, and with success, of course, comes a whole lot of celebrity.

In other words, the celebrity gets out of hand, and if youre not careful, you will forget what you are about - and that is you are about making music that people want to hear.

I think there are a lot of people who really want to be famous, they really do. I don't. It sort of gets in the way of the everyday things that I do.

A terrorist is the most foolish and naïve. He is drunk with fixed false beliefs that killing his neighbors will result in going to heaven.

I paint the ocean - I think of its vastness - its power - its wetness.

It was Nick's voice Nick's arms. He turned me on my back and swam with me, pulling me to the bank.

Until changing economic conditions made the thing actually happen, struggling early society would hardly have guessed that woman's road to gentility would lie through doing nothing at all.

I think that there were only two people in my high school that were comfortable there, and I think they are both pumping gas now.

When do you feel most loved? Are you willing to be loved today? Self-love is the magnet that attracts deep and profound expressions of love from others

Sarcasim is the lowest form of humor.

I guess for my skin, I clean it and moisturize and try to drink water. How boring is this though? I'm convinced that it comes from within. If you're happy and healthy, it shows.

We must not be frightened nor cajoled into accepting evil as deliverance from evil. We must go on struggling to be human, though monsters of abstractions police and threaten us.
