If you have to ask then you don't deserve an answer.
I've reached a point in life where it's no longer necessary to try to impress. If they like me the way I am, that's good. If they don't, that's too bad.
It is not I who have been consigned to the bedroom of history.
I know my limitations, and I don't like politics. I was only involved because of my husband.
As I came to power peacefully, so shall I keep it.

I acknowledged that I owed my presidency to People Power. I resolved during my presidency that I would in turn empower the people.
The most important thing in life is to learn how to give out love, and to let it come in.
My work is play. And I play when I design. I even looked it up in the dictionary, to make sure that I actually do that, and the definition of “play,” number one, was “engaging in a childlike activity or endeavor,” and number two was “gambling. ” And I realize I do both when I’m designing.

One afternoon a girl walked by in a bikini and my cousin Janet scoffed, “Look at the hips on her. ” I panicked. What about the hips? Were they too big? Too small? What were my hips? I didn’t know hips could be a problem. I thought there was just fat or skinny. This was how I found out that there are an infinite number of things that can be “incorrect” on a woman’s body.
