One thing that happens when you're pregnant is that as your stomach starts to stretch. It itches! So I have to keep my belly really lubricated. Every morning, there's a buttering ceremony after I get out of the shower. It's really like basting a turkey with body butter. ↗

I wasn't like those girls who give birth and are back on the runway. It took me probably six months to gain 45 pounds and I would say it took me double that time to lose it. ↗

American men, as a group, seem to be interested in only two things, money and breasts. It seems a very narrow outlook. ↗

I have not been that wise. Health I have taken for granted. Love I have demanded, perhaps too much and too often. As for money, I have only realized its true worth when I didn't have it. ↗

I advise everybody not to save: spend your money. Most people save all their lives and leave it to somebody else. Money is to be enjoyed. ↗
