More quotes by Bette Midler
Group conformity scares the pants off me because it's so often a prelude to cruelty towards anyone who doesn't want to - or can't - join the Big Parade.
Bette Midler
It's the Point of Your View that Decides What You See - / One Man's Flop Is Another Man's Hit. / From Manners to Movies, the Picture Keeps Changing / Depending Upon Where You Sit.
Bette Midler
I've always said we got married because there was nothing on TV.
Bette Midler
My idea of superwoman is someone who scrubs her own floors.
Bette Midler
You have to be alert. When my daughter, Sophie, came out of the womb, she was instantly alert, as if she had been here before. And she was a little disappointed that she was here again.
Bette Midler
My whole life had been spent waiting for an epiphany, a manifestation of God's presence, the kind of transcendent, magical experience that lets you see your place in the big picture. And that is what I had with my first [compost] heap.
Bette Midler
There's the media-driven universe, in which the public perceives you in a superficial way. Then there's the universe that you actually inhabit, where you have to get up even if you didn't sleep so well, and you feel like crap and your face is swollen.
Bette Midler

Bette Midler

Bette Midler
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
I love nature, in spite of what it did to me.
Bette Midler
I read neither good nor bad about me. I let it not even in my life, so it has no effect on me. I am very sensitive.
Bette Midler
I'm the last of the truly tacky women. I do trash with flash and sleaze with ease.
Bette Midler
A lot of people say that my life is wasted on me because I could be a bigger asshole than I am, but I've chosen not to be.
Bette Midler
You can't just have a clean public space - you also have to have people willing to use it, and something that will draw them in.
Bette Midler
It is true that in this culture, they throw you out when you get older. I see it all the time, especially in my business. At my age, you're playing somebody's mother - and there aren't even a lot of those roles!
Bette Midler
Rap is poetry set to music. But to me it's like a jackhammer.
Bette Midler
It's important that you all agree on what the parameters are and what you can accomplish - and not get pissed off or beat yourself up for what you can't accomplish.
Bette Midler
The [film] business is run by men, and they're basically interested in their own species, and they're not so interested in women belonging to the human race.
Bette Midler
Men's brains are smaller than those of women so they can fit into their penises.
