More quotes by 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
I have my standards. They're low, but I have them.
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
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
GOD is watching us, from a Distance.
Bette Midler
Do I understand this right? I'm being marked down?
Bette Midler
I always wanted to be a performer, I didn't know exactly what kind of performer, all I knew was there were certain things that I liked. I liked movies a whole lot, and I loved music.
Bette Midler
When I finally did stop and look at my life, I realized that I had done what I'd set out to do. In my pitiful little way, I had climbed the mountain I had chosen. And there I was, on top.
Bette Midler
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.
Bette Midler
I think the essence of humor has not changed. It's all about surprise, facilitating follows. But the context of humor has changed. Previously, the jokes were more related to current issues, political. Today people make about each other either funny or about people like Kim Kardashian. It's brutal. Everything is so much vielschmutziger.
Bette Midler
That's why I'm concerned about education, because it helps our children see other worlds. Education is my next big thing. When music and art were taken out of the schools, I went berserk!
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
If you're frightened, you're out of luck.
Bette Midler
I do look upon all of life as an episode - which is why the people around me are probably on guard!
Bette Midler
Sometimes you have to make your own opportunities, and that's why I'm on TV. I wasn't going to sit around anymore, waiting for the damn phone to ring. I had to create my own place - I've always done that.
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
When it's three o'clock in New York, it's still 1938 in London.
Bette Midler
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!
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
before one actually visits them, everyone tends to think of their favorite countries as one grand Disneyland filled with national monuments and historical treasures conveniently laid out for easy viewing, when what they really are filled with, of course, is people going to work, laundromats and places to buy rat poison.
