I can say, 'I am terribly frightened and fear is terrible and awful and it makes me uncomfortable, so I won't do that because it makes me uncomfortable.'

When they tried me out as a host on TV, I found that I just couldn't be that gregarious person. I was stranger than that.

And remember, this was a president (George W. Bush) who was selected by the Supreme Court rather than the people.

It’s like an American tradition. A person gets successful and then he’s supposed to change for the worse. It’s silly.

My friend Quincy Jones says we won our first Grammys together in 1963. I have no recollection. I don't even remember the room. When he showed me the picture, I remembered what I wore. But it's like awards don't mean anything.

I'm not that ambitious any more. I just like my privacy. I wish I really wasn't talked about at all.

A man who graduated high in his class at Yale Law School and made partnership in a top law firm would be celebrated. But a woman who accomplishes this is treated with suspicion.

I'm a terrible lip-syncer anyway because I have to be in the moment, and I can't lip-sync to something I recorded three months before.
