I was very close with my mother growing up. I have four older sisters who were an important part of my life. And I've been very close to all the women I've dated. I feel most comfortable around women.

I obviously enjoy being wealthy. It's enabled me to have a career that I've chosen and not one that I've been forced into.

People don't want to have to justify their privileges; they don't want to have to justify having access to the power and resource that wealth brings. And by not talking about it, they are able to hold onto their power without being questioned, and I think that makes them feel more secure.

I know people socially who live in countries where the wealth gap is more extreme than it is in America, and they live with full-time security. They live with the threat of getting kidnapped, or they live with the threat of people invading their homes.

I love stories with love in them. I just prefer those films. Every so often, I come across a film where there's no love story. It doesn't have to be romantic, but there's a lack of love, and I don't get that.

In Shaquille's mind, I think I'm always going to be his wife even though that's not the case. The love is always there and he's one of my best friends. We have a great time together and our kids love us just being a family.

The first condition of marriage between a man and a woman is that both must belong to each other totally.

We're often blinded by romance; we decide to not see things we don't want to see, and put up with behavior that we shouldn't put up with.
