People get a kick out of my stupidity.
Oh, I can spot a phoney a mile away.
My grandpa was a preacher.
I think that I know the value of a dollar.
I’m not a politician. And I don’t want to be.
I do remember how it was to be poor. I do remember that in my early years, we had to grow and raise all of our food, even our animals. And I remember in my early life, we didn’t even have electricity. So it was very, very hard times then.
I just love life. I love people. I love to write, that’s my gift. I love to sing. I have a good attitude. I like to think I shine from the inside.
Love is something sent from Heaven to worry the Hell out of you.
Laughter through tears is my favorite emotion.
I have a strict policy that nobody cries alone in my presence.
Dream more, learn more, care more, and be more.
I believe in my cosmetics line. There are plenty of charities for the homeless. Isn’t it time someone helped the homely?
I always love working with children. I never had children of my own. God has his purposes. God didn’t let me have children so everybody’s children could be mine. That’s kind of how I’m looking at it.
I can’t do nothing just a little.
I’ll never harden my heart but I’ve toughened the muscles around it.
If I hadn’t been a woman, I’d have been a drag queen.
Now I usually try not to give advice. Information, yes, advice, no. But, what has worked for me may not work for you. Well, take for instance what has worked for me. Wigs. Tight clothes. Push-up bras.
After Momma gave birth to twelve of us kids, we put her up on a pedestal. It was mostly to keep Daddy away from her.
I like to buy clothes that are two sizes too small and then take them in a little.
Some of my dreams are so big they would scare you.
