More quotes by Diana Ross
It has always been, and still is, my intention to build a playground in Central Park.
Diana Ross
My family called me a wiggle tail because I was a little skinny, wiry kid full of energy.
Diana Ross
If I do an interview, then I take full responsibility. I figure I'm not going to talk to anyone that I think is unethical anyway.
Diana Ross
It's easier for me to sit with the producers and the writers and I give them my feelings and my thoughts and what I think I feel like singing about and then they go away and write it.
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
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 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
All of a sudden I feel more womanly, I feel like I got a figure. I was always really straight up and down, the skinny one in the middle, like that poster at Elaine's of the Supremes at Lincoln Center - it was done by Joe Eula. To me that's really a reflection of the way I was. I was just like a bean pole. Now I'm getting a few curves and I like it.
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
I listen to most everything that's out there because I need to stay aware of what's happening in the industry.
Diana Ross
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.
Diana Ross
Being a parent is very important to me.
Diana Ross
It takes a long time to get to be a diva. I mean, you gotta work at it.
Diana Ross
I'm crazy about Diane Von Furstenberg. It's a relationship that's very different I don't see Diane a lot. So when I saw the article in New York magazine she looked so beautiful and it was talking about her work, too. She set up the interview and it was happening. That's different than someone writing a book about you who you've never met.
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
If we hold on together I know our dreams will never die Dreams see us through to forever Where clouds roll by For you and I
Diana Ross
Do you know where you going to? Do you like the things that life is showing you? Where are you going to? Do you know?
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
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
Most people are so hard to please that if they met God, they'd probably say yes, she's great, but.
