I do not have an act. I just do Eartha Kitt... I want to be whoever Eartha Kitt is until the gods take me wherever they take me.
The public has become my fairy godmother.
Sometimes it's good to fall down to see who will pick you up.
I was given away. If your mother gives you away, you think everybody who comes into your life is going to give you away.
Let's take care of the necessities first: give people jobs, and find a way to get us out of poverty
Having my animals or my children with me exorcises that feeling of not being wanted.
I always believe in living in the country, because that's where what I eat is what I can put back in the dirt.
Truth is a theory that is constantly being disproved. Only lies, it seems, go on forever.
Greed is so destructive. It destroys everything.
Young ghetto boys thought that in this society, the good guys lost and the bad guys won.
My recipe for life is not being afraid of myself, afraid of what I think or of my opinions.
A cat is a cat. She has no race creed or collar.
As you've witnessed, Catwoman is the ultimate diva. From the pages of comic books to both small and big screens, Catwoman continues to evolve and mature like a true cat. Catwoman, is a unique breed, never taking the same form twice. But whatever form she takes, she'll always reign supreme. A dog maybe man's best friend, but a cat is everyone's favourite feline fatale.
I've always said to my men friends, If you really care for me, darling, you will give me territory. Give me land, give me land.
