I am grateful to be a woman. I must have done something great in another life.

I was so busy climbing up this ladder, staying above the water. If there was only room for one woman in a room, I wanted to be her. I'm not proud of it. I certainly don't feel that way now. It was an absolute evolution for me.

I wanted to make sure that if somebody special did come along, I was the kind of man that a woman like her would deserve.

In my career I have never felt that my being a woman was an obstacle or an advantage. I guess I've been oblivious.

I've discovered new parts of my manhood, places I couldn't get to without loving someone else unconditionally and putting others before myself.

I grew up in an era where you had to find your own way as a woman. When I was a kid, there was this whole physical and emotional neatness and purity that a woman was supposed to have, and I didn't fit into that.

I never analyze why I was with one woman instead of another.

I could never be with a woman who felt like she needed to change me.

There must have been something in my nature - I believe, with all my heart, that I have conquered it now - which prevented me from being perfectly happy or making a woman perfectly happy.
