- In the late 1970s, slept on a foam mattress on the floor of her first apartment on E. 74th St, Manhattan -- a studio where she shared with a roommate, but lacked a kitchen sink. Even by the early 1990s, she was trying to make it NYC earning less than $2000/mo.

- On getting married: "One has to be open-minded when the right man comes along. And I know it's freaky, but this just seems like the natural thing to do. My friends didn't even say to me, 'So soon?' I think that's because they're so relieved.''
- On her husband: '''I told him he was too tall to be a ballet dancer and I asked if he was gay. At first he seemed too young, but then I looked into his eyes and it was like, 'Whoa!' ''
