I would rather be healthy alone, then sick with someone else.

You’re FAT – and don’t try to sugarcoat it, because you’ll just eat that, too.

A year from now, you’re gonna weigh more or less than what you do right now.

Life is not a success-only journey. You are going to get beat up along the way. And you’ve got to have the strength of character to get up and get back in the game.

Happiness isn’t a one-size-fits-all proposition. You must define what it looks like for you and then make a conscious effort to access whatever gets you to your unique definition of joy.

Drama and crisis are currency to them because they love the power to make people react. They thrive on a good fight, a good scandal, a good drama.

A lot of people believe what other people say.

We walked to meet each other up at the time of our love and then we have been irresistibly drifting in different directions, and there’s no altering that.

You know the funny thing, I don’t get along with rich people. I get along with the middle class and the poor people better than I get along with the rich people.

Friendship, ‘the wine of life,’ said Boswell, should, like a well-stocked cellar, be thus continually renewed. And Dr. Johnson added to this A man, Sir, should keep his friendships in constant repair.

I would never buy Ivana any decent jewels or pictures. Why give her negotiable assets?

I never felt I was too protective. I felt I was functioning as a dam against the river of sh*t that comes pouring down on artists, and it was a job that I took very seriously.

I love my husband, but my girlfriends are my sanity.

Among those whom I like or admire, I can find no common denominator, but among those whom I love, I can: all of them make me laugh.

All happy families are alike, but an unhappy family is unhappy after its own fashion.

Friendship with oneself is all important, because without it one cannot be friends with anyone else in the world.

No one has done a study on this, as far as I can tell, but I think Facebook might be the first place where a large number of people have come out. We didn’t create that – society was generally ready for that. I think this is just part of the general trend that we talked about, about society being more open, and I think that’s good.
