Bette Midler

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.

Rap is poetry set to music. But to me it's like a jackhammer.
Bette Midler
After thirty, a body has a mind of its own.
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 would much rather watch myself than listen to myself. The moving is second nature, but the listening... that's the art.

Bette Midler

Bette Midler
Let the sun stop burning, Let them tell me love's not worth going through. If it all falls apart, I will know deep in my heart, The only dream that mattered had come true ...In this life I was loved by you.
Bette Midler

Bette Midler
If somebody makes me laugh, I’m his slave for life.
Bette Midler
I had no idea of being a star, all I knew was that I wanted to be a great actress, I wanted to work as an actress. So I thought the way I would be a great actress was to sing and dance first. Lay a foundation - get my foot in the door, and then undoubtedly, of course, I would be offered great roles as soon as I grew up enough to handle them.
Bette Midler
I come from an overly confident place. But I'm overconfident because of feelings of inferiority.
Bette Midler
Me, I'm just a hack. I'm just a schlep-per. I just do what I can do.
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.
