More quotes by Bette Midler
If you pick up a ukulele, it will make you unbelievably happy.
Bette Midler
Through books and photographs, I saw a world that was not my own - and I realized that there was another world.
Bette Midler
I bear no grudges. I have a mind that retains nothing.
Bette Midler
If only I'd known my differentness would be an asset, then my earlier life would have been much easier.
Bette Midler
Some say love, it is a razor that leaves your soul to bleed.
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
I'm the last of the truly tacky women. I do trash with flash and sleaze with ease.

Bette Midler
All these children [who did not have music and art classes at school] go out into the world without knowing that there is anything other than what they have. Of course, children do look at TV, but what does it give them?
Bette Midler
I read a comment that made me think I should stop singing for a while. And I didn't want to stop singing, because it was the only thing I loved. At first I thought, Maybe I'll get better and eventually please the person who wrote about my singing. But then I thought, I probably will never please this person. I should just do what pleases me.
Bette Midler
We're all divine, but I was the only one who had the nerve to call myself that.
Bette Midler
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
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
[On Princess Anne:] Such an active, outdoorsy lass. She loves nature in spite of what it did to her.
Bette Midler
Honey, I can smell the scent of another woman from 500 paces.
