Quote

My mother was passionate. She was stubborn, the dominant one in the family. She dominated my father.

My mother was a passionate, complicated, sometimes fierce woman.

I had a very strong-willed mother, who I totally adored. She was always in control of her life.

My mother started out by being a very good girl. She did everything that was expected of her, and it cost her dearly. Late in her life, she was furious that she had not followed her own heart; she thought that it had ruined her life, and I think she was right.

I became the kind of parent my mother was to me.

Mother had committed me for life. This is where I felt betrayed the most.

My mother loves me and everything goes well. I have no conflict with her, so that's not dramatic.

My mother gave up a good part of her career to look after me.

My mother was a very difficult woman to please. She was the sort of woman who thought that if I were praised I would get above myself.

My mother is a strong, wonderful woman. I could never be anything she didn't want me to be.
