Beauty can't amuse you, but brainwork -- reading, writing, thinking -- can.

My success was not based so much on any great intelligence but on great common sense.

Nearly every glamorous, wealthy, successful career woman you might envy now started out as some kind of schlepp.

The only thing that separates successful people from the ones who aren't is the willingness to work very, very hard.

You can have your titular recognition. I'll take money and power.
