RISMEDIA, May 20-Today is the birthday of singer/actress Cher. Here are some of her best-known quotes:
"If you are going to wait for someone to encourage you to do something, you just better give it up."
"I was always Cher before people got hip to what that meant."
"If someone gives me any kind of an opportunity to do something in two days, I'll do it on the first day."
"I've always taken risks and never worried what the world might really think of me."
"I'm very schizo. I only operate on stop and full blast."
"Until you're ready to look foolish, you'll never have the possibility of being great."
"What I do, I do for myself and my fans, the new ones and the die-hard ones."
"If you really want something, you can figure out how to make it happen."
"The worst thing in the world is to be uncool."
"I'm a part of history whether people want to take it seriously or not."
"I answer to two people: myself and God."
"Some years I'm the coolest thing that ever happened, and the next year everyone's so over me."
"I wear my clothes, my clothes don't wear me."
"There are lots of things that I'd like to be, and nice just doesn't seem good enough."
"I'm a perfectionist, my own boss. If someone isn't pulling their weight, I let them know. I'm a nice person but you can't say yes to everyone."
"I think I'll always look really good for what my age is, and that'll be fine."
"I wish I could never, ever grow old. That's why I kill myself with exercise."
"I don't know what keeps me down to earth, but it sure isn't ironing. I send mine out."
"I have done so much more than I thought I would do, and yet I am not finished."
