I'd traveled a lot, was going temporarily insane and became very successful, but there was no one to take that all home to.

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
Image
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.

I want to go Africa. I want to go to China. There are some places I want to go not to work, but to really explore and to see for my own education.

I have a lust for life.

I'm not really a songwriter - I'm an interpreter. So in a sense I am an actress first and foremost. I act out the songs, and I lead with my heart.

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.

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.

You can have a lot of New York and still see what's going on in the rest of the world, I think - like in China.

I don't have to sit around and wait for the next movie to come along, I can go out and sing.

Take a little time out of your busy day to give encouragement to someone who's lost their way.
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.

They tell me that it will be hard to find a man strong enough to love my own strength and independence, and not worry about being Mr. Diana Ross, but I disagree. I know absolutely that that man is somewhere out there.

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.

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.

I think that if my voice for some reason changes - because your voice does change - then it's time for me not to sing.
