As long as I have people's attention, I can't stop. You can't put the public on hold, because they might not be there when you get back. I have a pathological fear of stopping.

More quotes by Tina Turner
I regret not having had more time with my kids when they were growing up.
Tina Turner
So when it came to role models, I looked at presidents' wives. Of course, you're talking about a farm girl who stood in the fields, dreaming, years ago, wishing she was that kind of person. But if I had been that kind of person, do you think I could sing with the emotions I do? You sing with those emotions because you've had pain in your heart.
Tina Turner
I'm perfectly fine now if I never went on stage again.
Tina Turner
I want to know what the difference between the essence of a man and woman is.
Tina Turner
This is what I want in heaven... words to become notes and conversations to be symphonies.

I heard stories from my mother's mother who was an American Indian. She was spiritual, although she did not go to church, but she had the hum. She used to tell me stories of the rivers.
Tina Turner
Physical strength in a woman - thats what I am.

I kind of felt I left a good message and memory with the people in terms of my work, and I always felt with a good record, I could always come back.
Tina Turner
After I moved with my mother to St. Louis, my older sister and I went to see Ike Turner, who was the hottest then. His music charged me. I was never attracted to him, but I wanted to sing with his band.
Tina Turner

Tina Turner
There comes a point where it is just undignified to be a rock 'n' roll star.
Tina Turner
I don't have a problem with being black in a white country or being with my people.
Tina Turner
I didn't worry about it because I kind of felt I left a good message and memory with the people in terms of my work, and I always felt with a good record, I could always come back.
Tina Turner
For me the goddess is the female of God, She is powerful if different.
Tina Turner
My legacy is that I stayed on course...from the beginning to the end, because I believed in something inside of me.
Tina Turner
My greatest beauty secret is being happy with myself. I don't use special creams or treatments - I'll use a little bit of everything. It's a mistake to think you are what you put on yourself. I believe that a lot of how you look is to do with how you feel about yourself and your life. Happiness is the greatest beauty secret.
Tina Turner
When my parents went off to Knoxville to work, I lived with my father's mother. She was strict - the kind who starched and ironed dresses. I had to sit more than I played. Oh, I was miserable. I liked being out with the animals. I'd come in the house with my hair pulled out, sash off the dress, dirty as heck. I was always getting spanked.
Tina Turner
What is love but a second-hand emotion?
