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.

My mother would only let us go to the musicals.
Bette Midler

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.

Honey, I can smell the scent of another woman from 500 paces.

When it's three o'clock in New York, it's still 1938 in London.

If you can accept your differentness and learn to love it and encourage it, then you can be someone wonderful.
Bette Midler
Image
I never know how much of what I say is true.

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.

It's the heart afraid of breaking that never learns to dance. It is the dream afraid of waking that never takes the chance.
