Women with money and women in power are two uncomfortable ideas in our society.

The function of the press in society is to inform but its role in society is to make money.

Great moments in science: Einstein discovers that time is actually money.

Money is a tremendous advantage in just about everything but in terms of reproduction if you're a poor woman and you are infertile it's like too bad so sad. And if you are a wealthy woman you can kind of buy whatever you want.

Nowadays you really have to pump out that blockbuster in order to have the luxury of getting a body of work and that's sad because the work suffers. Today everything is based on money. The older actors they inspire me.

I had to trick people into giving me money for my first film. Making a romantic comedy is easier and more expected from a woman than it is to make a drama about a Japanese warrior.

There's something so romantic about being broke in New York. You gotta do it. You have to live there once without any money and then you have to live there when you have money. Let me tell you of the two the latter is far better.

Even actresses that you really admire like Reese Witherspoon you think 'Another romantic comedy?' You see her in something like 'Walk the Line' and think 'God you're so great!' And then you think 'Why is she doing these stupid romantic comedies?' But of course it's for money and status.

I call on the international community to be fair to the Iraqi people. My position is that we respect international resolutions but in return demand justice and accountability for those who stole Iraq's money.

You know I respect what Howard Dean has been able to do. It's good for our party. But I've got to tell you this: If money alone decided presidential nominations Phil Gramm would have been nominated in '96.

I wanted to be an actress. In college I was a serious feminist and very political. I was determined to get one thing out of my career and that was respect. I didn't want money. I didn't care about fame.

When I started you didn't make a lot of money by being a comedian. You didn't get a lot of respect.

I have respect for those who make money at art and do it well and smartly because that commercial aspect keeps the world going and running in a sense.

Not only did I come out as a reality star that was very boisterous and vivacious and outspoken and all those things. I flipped that into money and respect. And a lot of people can't do that.

Yes I have made a lot of money and I have a lot of respect my films have done well and I know there are loads of loads of people who look up to me and really love me. I really just thought this is like a strange dream. I have never thought this is a success - I don't have a standard.

I think people's perception of a rich girl is literal but metaphorically I embrace it as being rich in love spirit joy and religion. So it's not about money.

Money creates a power relationship between the payer and the payee.

Even though money seems such an objective topic it can also be the most intimate and possibly harmful part of a relationship.

I was associated with a woman who I was involved with and had a relationship with. She asked for money. I felt as though I was being blackmailed or there was some sort of extortion.

I'd never really thought about it before but now you ask I can see that how my parents handled money definitely affected my relationship with it.

The players wanted more money higher salary caps and they didn't have that family relationship we felt with the players. Mentally the players were more businesslike.

As long as women are in the work force making their own money and decisions men are going to have to realize that this way of life is here to stay - because it takes two incomes to make it and more now.
