I don't judge people by their sexual orientation or the color of their skin, so I find it really hard to identify someone by saying that they're a gay person or a black person or a Jewish person.

More quotes by Diana Ross
So every time I make a new circuit, a new time around, then I change the show. You can't change the songs people still want to hear Lady Sings the Blues and they still want to hear some of the oldies.
Diana Ross
It's not fair that our name can be used in any newspaper, any article connected with anything, and we can't really fight about it. It's like any newspaper that might take a picture of you, bad or good, and sometimes they're awful pictures, and they can use them without your approval and you can't do anything about it.
Diana Ross
My problem is that people have been writing books about me.A lot of things that people write about you are incorrect, but you don't fight about it.
Diana Ross
It takes a long time to get to be a diva. I mean, you gotta work at it.
Diana Ross
With the Supremes I made so much money so fast all I wanted to do was buy clothes and pretty things. Now I'm comfortable with money and it's comfortable with me.
Diana Ross
You know, you do need mentors, but in the end, you really just need to believe in yourself.
Diana Ross
It seems like I don't have a lot of time for all the things I need to do. I'm spreading myself fairly thin. I have responsibilities to my children. I have a big staff that works for me. And when you have a staff, and I'm sure you know this, you're always concerned with everybody's life all the time.
Diana Ross
I can be a better me than anyone can.
Diana Ross
Icon. What is an icon? When someone is iconic it means they have established a certain kind of legacy possibly, and I think it does come with time. It's something in the arts, I feel. Maybe not, maybe it doesn't have to be in the arts exactly. I'm not really sure. But I don't think you are born an icon.
Diana Ross
I'm really lucky, I have my performing career so I can continue to do personal appearances. Most actors have to do a film. But I thought I would wait until I found something I really liked.A lot of my friends feel that I'm wrong to wait. They say I should have done My Bodyguard, but I don't think so. I think I've been right.
Diana Ross
I think that if my voice for some reason changes - because your voice does change - then it's time for me not to sing.
Diana Ross
People can take your name and write a book about you and they make money off of it. How is the public supposed to know you're not authorizing that book? As soon as you make a big stink about it it only makes the book sell more.
Diana Ross
All my gowns have trains on them. I make a train that goes on forever. I love long trains and then I stand there and twirl around and wrap myself up in it.
Diana Ross
You can always tell where Diana Ross has been by the hair that's left behind!
Diana Ross
Hair has always been important.
Diana Ross
I would like to enjoy my life a little bit more so I can really have more fun, but my work is my fun.
Diana Ross
I'm a parent, and I try to take care of my health and keep my life in order. In the last few years I've really had to decide what's important to me, and it seems to me that my family and my health are top on the list. And those have nothing to do with show business.
Diana Ross
I don't like to have too many makeup artists around, so I always like to do my own.
Diana Ross
My life has often been described as 'from rags to riches' but in fact, the Ross's were never raggedy.
Diana Ross
My family called me a wiggle tail because I was a little skinny, wiry kid full of energy.
Diana Ross
