Never lend your car keys to someone you gave birth to.

I have a few obsessions in life, and one is shoes!

I decided I would never do interviews again.

In my late teenage years, I developed a real passion for it, and wrote a lot of poetry.

I don't just want to catch some guy and have a bunch of kids. I want to make something of myself.

I've shut myself inside these walls, and I'm going to be a very lonely old lady if I'm not careful.

Somebody once said to me that photography and writing don't get respect because people think that they can do it, too.

You can’t move ahead until you bury the past.

I grew up with my father, so I know more about cars than most women.

Not all forms of abuse leave bruises.

People are much more inclined to believe and say bad things about you if you're famous.

To be able to touch lives, and touch a life that you don't even know, is an extraordinary thing.

So often people tell me: you got me through this, you've really helped me. And I never realized that part of what I do is that I give people hope.

I always try to write about believable people.

You'd be surprised how fast things happen when the right man comes along.

A bad review is like baking a cake with all the best ingredients and having someone sit on it.

Some things in life are worth waiting for.

What intrigues me is the difference in how women experience power, and how men do.

I wrote because I needed to and wanted to. It never occurred to me that I'd become famous.
