Quotes from Debbie Rowe

I do not wish to share any parenting responsibilities with Michael because he is doing so well without me.

There's two Michaels: there's, like, my Michael. And the Michael that everyone else sees. Michael the entertainer.

I don't think I have segments in my life; it runs all together.

Michael was divorced, lonely, and wanted children. I was the one who said to him, 'I will have your babies.'

I was Michael's best friend.

Michael did it all. I am telling you that he is the most brilliant father. Almost before the baby needed something, he knew what it was.

My personal life was my personal life and no one's business.

Everybody needs a safe place, and it should be their home.

I'm not miserable; please don't misunderstand me. I have a lovely life.

I had a very 'colorful' language, and every time I went to say something, Michael would cut me off with words like 'shoot' and 'fudge.' He didn't like curses. He didn't think it was necessary when other words would do.

You know what Michael did? He got me the most fabulous place to live. If you read the tabloids, it's the enclave of the enclave, Beverly Hills, which I have no idea what an enclave is. If it's chic-chic, it's cool.

I went to lunch at the Ivy. People started running across the street, and one guy almost got hit by a car. I started to freak out. That put me into hiding for three weeks. I didn't leave the house.

My lawyer is telling me I have to take some responsibility about the welfare of the children. Do I want the kids? Hell no. Does it look good for me to ask for them? Absolutely. I don't want to look like the woman who gave away her kids and just forgot about them.

The very rich, very poor, and the very famous get the worst medical care. The very rich can buy it, the very poor can't get any, and the very famous can dictate it.

I had eyebrows and eyeliner tattooed, so I have, like, make-up. How lovely is that?

My biggest fears I can't talk about. And my biggest fear is that those fears happen, and I can't stop it.

I'm still feminine, I'm still a woman, and above all, I'm still human.

Chemo does its best to make you lose your femininity. You lose your hair. You lose your eyelashes. You lose your eyebrows.

I'm a fighter and always have been.

I am possessive and protective of my babies. Their happiness means more to me than anything else on this world. I love them more than I would ever have thought was possible.

I turned out two pretty good-looking kids. For that I am proud.

Because you give birth, because you impregnate someone, that does not automatically give you that title of mother or father. You earn the title.

You earn the title 'parent.' I have done absolutely nothing to earn that title.

Michael had a very low pain tolerance, and his fear of pain was incredible. And I think that doctors took advantage of him that way.
