I learned something from that. If someone asks me something that I really don't want to do, I say no. I have to trust that. And I'm not afraid to talk money.

More quotes by Diana Ross
You can always tell where Diana Ross has been by the hair that's left behind!
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
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
I don't like to have too many makeup artists around, so I always like to do my own.
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
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
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.

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
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
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
It has always been, and still is, my intention to build a playground in Central Park.
Diana Ross
It takes a long time to get to be a diva. I mean, you gotta work at it.
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
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
Hair has always been important.

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
Most people are so hard to please that if they met God, they'd probably say yes, she's great, but.
Diana Ross
I can be a better me than anyone can.
Diana Ross
I have three girls, and I say the same thing to them. I'm not involved in their careers because I've learned that it's important for them to stand on their own two feet. They'll feel better and prouder of themselves if they do.
Diana Ross
