"True, as unwisdom is the worst of ills"

-- Sophocles

“I have a responsibility to lots of people in my life. I have three children, I'm a wife, I have 60 staff and lots of charity shops, so therefore I have a responsibility to be well, I think. I have a personal trainer three times a week, I do yoga and I meditate.”
“If I die, I die friendless and abandoned. What choice did that leave him, but to live?”
“I don't have the acting skills my daughter has.”
“guilt politics ... I regard as conveniently paralyzing, ripe for backlash defensiveness, counterproductive, and boring.”
“Get a bicycle. You will not regret it, if you live.”
“My philosophy is to enjoy yourself. Do the things you want to do, like play golf!”
“Countries where women have access to professional life are also those where the birth rate is higher.”
