I Have Priorities. Maintaining My Daughter Is

I Think Over The Years, Being A Mother, I've Matured In So Many Ways.

I Don't Like It When They [media Critics] See Me As This Little Person Who Doesn't Know What To Do With Herself -- Like I Have No Idea What I Want, Like I'm Just A Puppet ... That's Demeaning To Me, Because That Ain't How It Is, And It Never Was.

I Wanted To Be A Teacher. I Love Children, So I Wanted To Deal With Children. Then I Wanted To Be A Veterinarian. But By The Age Of Ten Or Eleven, When I Opened My Mouth And Said, 'oh, God, What's This?' I Kind Of Knew Teaching And Being A Veterinarian Were Gonna Have To Wait.

I Like Being A Woman, Even In A Man's World. After All, Men Can't Wear Dresses, But We Can Wear The Pants.

I've Read About Myself And My Husband And My Family, To The Point Where They've Called My Parents, They've Called My Brothers, Offering Money To Tell Stories. They Call Friends Of Mine. I'd Just Like For Them To Just ... Don't Badger Us. Don't Scrutinize Us. We Have Children And They Have To Live, Too. It's Not Fair.
