I was raised in an atmosphere of everythings fine. But as I got older, I was like, Well no, everythings not fine. There is stuff thats sad. I am a really sensitive person. I think I am too sensitive sometimes. – Ellen DeGeneres
While I was doing stand-up, I thought I knew for sure that success meant getting everyone to like me. So I became whoever I thought people wanted me to be. Id say yes when I wanted to say no, and I even wore a few dresses. – Ellen DeGeneres
Even before I knew I was gay, I knew I didnt want to have a child. I knew I didnt want to have one. I never want to have to release it from me. Listen, I love babies. I love children. And I melt when Im around them. I also love my freedom and I love that I can sleep at night. – Ellen DeGeneres
So many people prefer to live in drama because its comfortable. Its like someone staying in a bad marriage or relationship – its actually easier to stay because they know what to expect every day, versus leaving and not knowing what to expect. – Ellen DeGeneres
