[On Helen Reddy:] She ought to be arrested for loitering in front of an orchestra.
Bette Midler

When I started in this [music] business, I had a dream, but it was amorphous, and I had no experience. I just had a fuzzy notion of what life would be like if I became what I pictured.

I want to have fun, and I want to give people a good laugh.

I've always been lucky enough to have great audiences. It has been quite a life.
Bette Midler
Image
When the movies first started, audiences were dumbstruck to see actresses walking around in evening gowns. They'd never seen anything like that. They wanted to be like those actors and actresses, so the movies informed their behavior. A lot of people started drinking martinis and smoking cigarettes because they felt it was cool.

I decided years ago not to read stories about myself anymore. Each one is a potential minefield: Whatever it says, you're bound to take it the wrong way. Why do it if you know it's going to make you miserable?
Bette Midler
Image
Make sure your life is a rare entertainment! It doesn't take anything drastic. You needn't be gorgeous or wealthy or smart, just very enthusiastic!

I'm the last of the truly tacky women. I do trash with flash and sleaze with ease.

People put barriers up in your path, and one of those barriers is age. They tell you, You're too old. You don't photograph so well anymore. I know I don't photograph so well anymore, so what can I do? I can do something different, where it doesn't matter as much how I look.

Image
Through books and photographs, I saw a world that was not my own - and I realized that there was another world.

Find your Light They can't love you if they can't see you

If somebody makes me laugh, I’m his slave for life.
Bette Midler
Image
I'm looking for something that gives me a chance to stretch. Because I have my own work, and I can do anything I want in my own work - juggle, tap dance, anything I want.
Bette Midler
Image
Image is everything, and the voice or the idea or the song is hardly anything at all. Half the time the person isn't even doing the singing. I'm a bit cynical about this [music] business.
Bette Midler
Image
I don't like violence. I get sick from violence. Do you think people are excited by violence?
Bette Midler
Image
[On Princess Anne:] Such an active, outdoorsy lass. She loves nature in spite of what it did to her.
Bette Midler
Image
A lot of people have no access to beauty. When I was growing up, my mother had only a few pretty things to look at.

Image
It's a different world now: Stars come and go quickly, and there are so many of them. I read a statistic that all the record companies combined used to put out around 3,000 albums in a year. Now they put out something like 30,000!

I'd make a wonderful Lady Macbeth. I'll wear a pair of platform shoes or something.
