I think that people who are famous tend to be underdeveloped in their,humanity skills.

I had a career and I came to motherhood late and am not married and have,never had such a trusting relationship with a man - and trust is where,the real power of love comes from.

[Regarding getting drug shots before each performance of the 1968 rock,musical, "Hair"] At the time it was astonishing to have a job. It was,odd. Before the show opened we got a shot by a doctor Bishop. A vitamin,shot, only it was not vitamins. It was like methamphetamines. You were,flying. A lot of people got addicted.

When I first got to know Woody and I was going out with him, I noticed,that people never wanted to hear anything that I had to say at all.

They just wanted to be in the shadow of his light and I remember really,having a hard time with that.

I would audition for the talent show when I was in junior high school,and I was going to sing All I Want For Christmas Is My Two Front Teeth.

This living stuff is a lot. Too much, and not enough. Half empty, and half full.

As he stared into the ocean, he must have tossed a lifetime of apologies into its silence. Maybe he thought the tide would wash his troubles away.

A sense of freedom is something that, happily, comes with age and life experience.

Memories are simply moments that refuse to be ordinary,Its the journey that counts, not the arrival.

My mother was really my partner in every project that I had. She was just the great enabler of my dreams.

I had a career and I came to motherhood late and am not married and have never had such a trusting relationship with a man - and trust is where the real power of love comes from. .
