My children come first and the career comes in around that.
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.

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.

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.

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.

I look forward to the future - and going into the studio to make new music.

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

I was brought up in this part of Detroit that they used to call the ghetto.

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

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.

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.

I can be a better me than anyone can.

Being a parent is very important to me.

My family called me a wiggle tail because I was a little skinny, wiry kid full of energy.
