My parents had an arranged marriage, as did so many other people when I was growing up. My father came and had a life in the United States one way and my mother had a different one, and I was very aware of those things. I continue to wonder about it, and I will continue to write about it. ↗

You don't want your jewelry to make you look fat. A lot of what's out there now does - you just wind up looking like a Christmas tree. ↗

I am not ashamed to say that no man I ever met was my father's equal, and I never loved any other man as much. ↗

I remember all too well the premiere of Ecstasy when I watched my bare bottom bounce across the screen and my mother and father sat there in shock. ↗
