More quotes by Bette Midler
Through books and photographs, I saw a world that was not my own - and I realized that there was another world. That's why I'm concerned about education, because it helps our children see other worlds.
Bette Midler
When my daughter was younger we showed her all the great musicals. And the great dramas and great comedies, and the one that she took to the most was Some Like It Hot.
Bette Midler
If someone were to say seriously, I'm divine, she'd have to be locked up. There are lots of people in mental institutions going around saying I'm God. But because I'm funny about it, they haven't locked me up yet. And I don't give myself airs, either.
Bette Midler
Men's brains are smaller than those of women so they can fit into their penises.
Bette Midler
My parents have not insisted that we go to college, but she wanted us to learn. Teacher, librarian, secretary, nurse. All my siblings were employed. But I wanted to be the boss, an independent contractor.
Bette Midler
My mother would only let us go to the musicals.
Bette Midler
I'm so glad to be back in New York. Los Angeles can be so cold, so cruel after you've been-what's the word?-oh yes: 'fired.'

Bette Midler
When you have a steady job you're more inspired to broaden yourself.
Bette Midler
I would much rather watch myself than listen to myself. The moving is second nature, but the listening... that's the art.
Bette Midler
I'm mad about God! That's why I'm divine.
Bette Midler
I always try to balance the light with the heavy - a few tears of human spirit in with the sequins and the fringes.
Bette Midler
It's the heart afraid of breaking that never learns to dance. It is the dream afraid of waking that never takes the chance.
Bette Midler
Melbourne is the kind of town that really makes you consider the question 'Is there life after death?
Bette Midler
From the age of 14 until I was 50, I just got on a treadmill and ran. I never stopped to assess what I was doing or to pat myself on the back.
Bette Midler
There's a kind of emotional exploration you plumb with a friend that you don't really do with your family.
Bette Midler
For days on end, I would hardly speak, and when I did only the vilest sort of gibberish would spout forth. I became morose and fat. Unapproachable, except when eating - and then only by waiters.
Bette Midler
If somebody makes me laugh, I’m his slave for life.
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
I try not to drink too much because when I'm drunk, I bite.
