Quote

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.

My life has often been described as 'from rags to riches' but in fact, the Ross's were never raggedy.

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.

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.

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

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

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.

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 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.

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

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

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 really, deeply believe that dreams do come true. Often, they might not come when you want them. They come in their own time.

It has always been, and still is, my intention to build a playground in Central Park.

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

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.

Image
I listen to most everything that's out there because I need to stay aware of what's happening in the industry.

It takes a long time to get to be a diva. I mean, you gotta work at it.

I would like to enjoy my life a little bit more so I can really have more fun, but my work is my fun.

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.

Most people are so hard to please that if they met God, they'd probably say yes, she's great, but.
