I’ve seen so many people in this business that made a fortune. They get old and broke and can’t make any money. I tell you something… no one’s going to play a benefit for Jimmy Dean.
In all honesty, at that time, I never saw myself as an author… I was just a Mom in a state of panic, trying to enter a short story contest to win the prize money in order to keep the lights on in my home.
I’m not sure about the selling part, but I’ve always found that the things I’ve worn on tour have moved over to what people wear every day. Sometimes the things I wore in the beginning before I had money were things I put together.
I choose films for their artistic value. I don’t need a mansion or a Jaguar. When I leave this Earth, I won’t take any money with me. All I will leave behind will be my art.
I do not understand how it is that financial institutions could think that they could take taxpayer money and then turn around and act like it’s business as usual.

Wouldn’t it be great if you could only get AIDS by giving money to television preachers?
People ask how can a Jewish kid from the Bronx do preppy clothes? Does it have to do with class and money? It has to do with dreams.
I give lectures for money, but all the money goes to charity. So, I make no money from it.
Some people feel that what we’re doing makes no sense, that it’s just a waste of money. But it’s working.
