Quote

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!

When you have a steady job you're more inspired to broaden yourself.

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
Image
There's the media-driven universe, in which the public perceives you in a superficial way. Then there's the universe that you actually inhabit, where you have to get up even if you didn't sleep so well, and you feel like crap and your face is swollen.

Everyone goes through their winters and springs, and their summers and autumns.
Bette Midler

Most people don't deserve to be spoken of in the same breath as Chaplin or Lucille Ball.

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.

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.

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.

I love nature, in spite of what it did to me.
Bette Midler
Image
We're all divine, but I was the only one who had the nerve to call myself that.
Bette Midler
Image
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
Image
If sex is such a natural phenomenon, how come there are so many books on how to do it?
Bette Midler
Image
I'm the last of the truly tacky women. I do trash with flash and sleaze with ease.

My mother would only let us go to the musicals.

You can feel compassion for others without feeling victimized yourself.

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.

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.
