Personal Quotes

Every gay reader understands the secret self that is full and wonderful and has longing and tenderness and a desire for connection to other people. I think that arguments against gay marriage are just ridiculous! Who cares? People want to get married for the same reason I wanted to get married. They want to do it in front of their friends and family.

I hope that I have a body of work by the time that I’m done with all of this that I’m proud of. Certainly the cornerstone will always be Wonder Woman and I love her.

People have tried to put me in a box my whole life. I’m too tall. I’m too pretty. Too Miss USA. Wonder Woman. Prettiest woman in the world. And all of that. It doesn’t matter because I’ve gone my own way and have tried to approach my career from a gut level, doing what I thought was right.

We moved around a lot at first as a kid, and then I was on the road at 17, and new in town by the time I got to LA, and then famous again with that whirlwind. I did really want substance in my life, and when I stopped with the road for my children, it was really because I didn’t want to miss out. It wasn’t just selflessness. I didn’t want to miss out on that.

It’s not too bad to be a sort of pop icon, you know? It’s not too tough to handle.
