Quote by Roseanne Barr (b. 1952)

• Experts say you should never hit your children in anger. When is a good time? When you're feeling festive?

• The world makes you into a bitch, no matter how quietly you go, so you may as well go kicking and screaming.

• I'm not upset about my divorce. I'm only upset I'm not a widow.

• Women complain about premenstrual syndrome, but I think of it as the only time of the month that I can be myself.

• The thing women have got to learn is that nobody gives you power. You just take it.

• I hate the word housewife; I don't like the word home-maker either. I want to be called Domestic Goddess.
