“I’m under absolutely no obligation to make sense to you.”

“Reputation is everything.”

“The real tragedy, though, isn’t that I don’t get along with my mother. The real tragedy is that he doesn’t understand why I don’t get along with her.”

“The thing about being catapulted into a whole new life – or at least, shoved up so hard against someone else’s life that you might as well have your face pressed against their window – is that it forces you to rethink your idea of who you are.”

“Each of us has our own unique power. And my power wasn’t good looks or money or celebrity. My power was being a woman alone in the world, who at one point in time belonged to no one.” HAPPY ANNIVERSARY TO THE MOST BEAUTIFUL COUPLE QUOTES
