“It's painful when you see your boyfriend flirting with some girl or you know he's been with somebody on the road.”

“I used to go to tea at the St. Regis with Dali. I was standing there and Mr. Dali walked over to me and asked if I would like to have tea with him and Truman Capote. Normally if a person would come up to you in a magazine store and ask you to have tea, you'd run, wouldn't you? But I sort of had a feeling that this was legitimate.”

“I think the term 'rock chick' is more about an attitude than an actual look.”

“Rock stars wanted to date the models, the trendsetters, the tastemakers.”

“Believe me, I became a vegetarian from being a teenager in the meatpacking district.”

“Rod Stewart helped me to realize what I didn't want in a boyfriend.”

“There's a lot of people in show business who have show business parents.”

“I don't think I'm the only girl who's not a groupie who has been called a groupie. Talented, beautiful people tend to fall in love with each other. I don't know why that's so unusual.”

“The only thing I was certain about was that I could lure any man I wanted into my bed. But I could not lure any man I wanted into a stable relationship.”

“The whole British invasion sort of changed my life. It made me want to move to New York.”

“I believe that nothing is an accident. Everything happens for a reason. And everyone you meet and everyone you come into contact with it's meant to happen.”

“Liv never wanted to be a hellion. From an early age, she used to make all these wish lists for herself and then try to live up to them.”

“I was never the kind of girl that chased anybody.”

“I don't hate Rod Stewart. I think he's an incredible talent, funny, darling. Just didn't make a good boyfriend.”

“I know people may find this hard to believe, but there were lots of times when I would be just too tired to go out. I'd have Mick Jagger calling me on the phone saying, 'Oh, Bebe, please come out,' and I would be like, 'Oh, please, I've gotta go to sleep.'”

“I want people to see that there are happy endings, that we do achieve our goals, that it's never too late.”

“I had lovely boyfriends. For your first three boyfriends to be Mick Jagger, Todd Rundgren, and David Bowie, I don't think anyone would have a problem with that.”

“I realized that there is no fairy tale.”

“When you talk about a man like David Bowie, you have to go in there with dignity.”

“Friends were always trying to get me to do sexy photographs, but I was a little too uptight.”
