No woman can call herself free until she can choose consciously whether she will or will not be a mother.
There is no one who takes care of us as lovingly as our mother does. She is our living God.
I was kind of a misfit, and when my mother died, I had to become an adult, something that I never thought I would ever be.
I'm not in denial about technology, but my mother used to say when I was a kid, 'Son, you're handless,' because I couldn't fix anything. My ambition is to be a Luddite.
I hurt my wife, my kids, my mother, my wife's family, my friends, my foundation and kids all around the world who admired me.
My view on issues is based on common sense, and my experience as a mother of four children, as a sole parent, and as a businesswoman running a fish and chip shop.

I have an impressionable palate. A well-worded menu or beautifully presented dish excites me. I get a great deal of pleasure just thinking about food.
