Tina Turner

I regret not having had more time with my kids when they were growing up.

For me the goddess is the female of God, She is powerful if different.

In the USA there is no female equivalent to god.

I don't like to dwell on the past.

My career always took me away from home, I was always away from home and I just wanted to be at home.

Success in America - what I find with my homeland, nothing lasts very long. Europe is different. You're right there with them until you come back.

Well, these days, if you're away five years, you might not be able to get back.

Physical strength in a woman - that's what I am.

I've never bothered about my color. I never had that thing about being black. If the whole world was like that, maybe there would be more harmony and love. Maybe. I don't have a problem with being black in a white country or being with my people.

Ike's problem was that he was a musician that always wanted to be a star; and was a star, locally, but never internationally... so he then changed the name to Ike and changed my name to Tina because if I ran away, Tina was his name. It was patented as you call it.

There comes a point where it is just undignified to be a rock 'n' roll star.

I want to know what the difference between the essence of a man and woman is.
