I like Danish humour – I just wish you had more of it.
Of course, I have nothing against the language changing, but there must be reasonableness in it, so that it does not become a mere gas can. On the other hand, new words are sometimes added that I wouldn’t do without – for example, “smug”. It’s my new favorite word. It’s a wonderfully oily word, a precise word that covers a certain type of person with a high degree of self-confidence in their own abilities.
With great powers comes great responsibilities.
It is not the mountain we conquer, but ourselves.
I am a bourgeois, but I am not a Left-woman. I was born a bourgeois, and I have always tried not to stand on a pedestal and say that I am a worker. That would be false talk. Nor during the many years when the red hirelings were around and held their noses at the thought of “Matador” and everything else I did. I’m not a peasant either. I was born a bourgeois, but that is why I can criticise the bourgeoisie and their shabby schemes, which I can easily see through.
I don’t hate myself anymore. I used to hate my work, hate the sexy image, hate the pictures of me on stage, hate the big vulgar person. On stage, I act the whole time I’m there. As soon as I come out of those songs, I’m Tina again.
I’d say it’s been my biggest problem all my life.. it’s money. It takes a lot of money to make these dreams come true.
The early bird catches the worm. The early worm gets eaten.
When life seems hard, the courageous do not lie down and accept defeat; instead, they are all the more determined to struggle for a better future.
All footballers are motivated by money – those who say otherwise are lying.
If it’s dancing, or anything else in life my darling, that matters to you, then don’t let anything or anyone stop you.
It has always been easy to hate and destroy. To build and to cherish is much more difficult.
Sometimes you need to let go of everything – cleanse yourself. If you’re unhappy with something… whatever it is that’s dragging you down, get rid of it. Because you’ll find that when you’re free, your true creativity, your true self, comes out.
I have a small walk-in closet, and it can easily turn into a recycling museum, so I’ve also learned to sort out. When you are as old as I am, it is very important not to get sloppy and wear boring clothes.
The women’s struggle today is an individual struggle (…) You can’t demand equal pay if you also want to have a long maternity leave, stay at home when they are sick and be there primarily for the children.
Why fall in love, when you can fall asleep
I dont do drugs. I am drugs.
In this house, I’m not famous. Because the dog doesn’t care. And my children hopefully appreciate me more for our regular interaction and conversations,
My biggest beauty secret is to be happy with myself. I don’t use special creams or treatments – I use a little bit of everything. It’s a mistake to think you are what you put on yourself. I think a lot of how you look has to do with how you feel about yourself and your life. Happiness is the secret of beauty.
I had to go through so horribly much before I found out to skip where the fence is lowest.
Bad publicity is better than no publicity at all
Life is not about waiting for the storm to subside. It’s about learning to dance in the rain.
Don’t prepare the path for the child, prepare the child for the path.
Til we meet again, may God bless you. Adios.
I’ve never given myself a lot of credit because of my relationship with Ike. I was just happy when I started to like myself – when I got divorced and took control of my life.
