More quotes by Martha Stewart
I had no idea when I went to college what I'd be doing. I took organic chemistry and did terribly, but I was good in English and art. I took many courses and participated in as many activities as I could. I learned a lot about every single thing.
Martha Stewart
Don't be embarrassed by your achievements. Being an overarchiever is nothing despicable. It is only admirable. Never lower your standards.
Martha Stewart
Broaden yourself. You don't have to focus when you're 20. I think the broader you are, the better it is. Later you can focus on your real interests and ideas. The ultimate goal is to be an interesting, useful, wholesome person. If you're successful on top of that, then you're way ahead of everybody.
Martha Stewart
My daughter emails me. When your daughter starts to email you instead of talk to you... It's horrible. You cannot forget human communication.

This is a funny story. We'd asked the guards every day for cappuccino. You know, just as a joke. And they'd come in with their cups of coffee and stuff.

I don't think there's any company that has the same tools as Martha Stewart Living does, and people know that. They really love the tools and, if you have the tools, you can pretty much do the craft.
Martha Stewart
Fifty-seven percent of Americans are do-it-yourselfers, craftspeople, and artisans and makers.
Martha Stewart
I am a hero worshiper. I love the number one tennis player. I love the number one baseball player. I want to see those records broken.
Martha Stewart
I support Alice Waters in her desire that there be a vegetable garden at the White House. I don't think they should rip up the Rose Garden, because that's something that I love. They should probably dig up another patch and grow some vegetables there.
Martha Stewart
All I really want is a three-room house. The home I have designed at my new farm in Bedford, New York, is a three-room house: bedroom on top, living room in the middle, and kitchen on the ground.
Martha Stewart
It is within everyone's grasp to be a CEO.
Martha Stewart
When I was incarcerated at Alderson in West Virginia for a five-month term, they had a ceramics class.
Martha Stewart
It's all about new techniques -- simplifying old techniques, and consolidating steps. Making things go faster, but not worse.
Martha Stewart
I love the challenge of starting at zero every day and seeing how much I can accomplish.
Martha Stewart
I have a microphone on one ankle and an ankle bracelet on the other, so I'm well balanced today.
Martha Stewart
I record my radio show, and my staff makes me a nice lunch in the kitchen, usually fish - whatever's freshest and line-caught - and a salad. I drink water and herbal tea, a blend of catnip, elderberry, and horehound.
Martha Stewart
I don't have time to have friends come and stay, except on weekends in Maine. I invite a lot of people to come to Maine.
Martha Stewart
Our families and our homes are the center of American life, Everything we do is to make those homes-and the lives in them-more beautiful, more comfortable, more functional and more full of life and light and joy for those we love.
