I have never been a believer that nice clothes should only be for people with money.

You have to be reasonable with yourself and not feel guilty when things aren't perfect.

My mother lived till she was 95 and never had a line on her face or a frown line. She was beautiful.

When I first decided to launch a clothing line, I was pregnant with my daughter Spencer-Margaret, so I looked for a retailer with values that mirrored my own growing family concerns. Kmart is a family store where value-conscious moms shop, so my partnership with Kmart seemed like a natural fit.

After having children, life becomes about living beyond yourself; about being bigger and better.

I'm not about my breasts; I'm just about good health, OK. I'm not afraid of doing what I need to do to stay here. I really don't understand women who are in denial, who don't want to go for a mammogram. I think it's stupidity. Sorry. I have no patience for that.

We're traditional and don't do cutting-edge styles, but after 17 years we're holding our own.

Cancer stops you in your tracks. It really makes you think about what's important. In a second, life can change. Don't ever forget to say thank you for love and family. What good is your success without them?

Kmart's as much a part of my history as 'Charlie's Angels.' Twenty-five years! It's not just a celebrity brand.

Farrah Fawcett had courage, she had strength, and she had faith.

Success is carved out of a hard tree. It doesn't just happen. It's people who stick to it that succeed.

It's not about me, it's about my family. You don't answer questions for you, but for us. You learn to live beyond yourself.

I have a particular image, and my customers know my line isn't going to be so trendy it will be out of style next year.

Did I shop Kmart for clothing? No, I didn't. But I loved that I could be totally involved in the hangtags, the buttons, the commercials and with the designers. Something in my head said 'Yes.' I was adventurous.

I've always been into older homes, even if I have to refurbish or remodel or raise roof lines or knock out walls.

I've been a fortunate girl: I grew up in a family that loved me from day one. I feel well grounded and lucky from that. So everything else is a bonus, because I grew up in this family that I adored, and adored me, and I think when you have that, you are already ahead of the game in the sense of how you feel about yourself.

I de-stress with my family, just at home pruning roses, cutting, working in the garden.

We're traditional and don't do cutting-edge styles, but after 17 years we're holding our own.

I'm not a sex symbol. How could I be with these skinny bowlegs?

Chemotherapy isn't easy. I felt very fortunate I wouldn't have to go through that.
