Aretha Franklin
American - Musician
March 25, 1942 - August 16, 2018

People say, 'When are you making this comeback?' I say, 'It's not a comeback, it's a record.' They say, 'Where have you been all these years?' I say, 'I've been making records.'

Billy Squier

It's been phenomenal, but everybody keeps congratulating me on my resurgence and my big comeback. I haven't been away, guys. I've been working steadily for the last 63 years.

Betty White

I'm always making a comeback but nobody ever tells me where I've been.

Billie Holiday

I say we should praise Donald Trump for existing and for winning, because it has woken people up. For many years, I have been trying to say to Europeans, and especially to Americans, that Vladimir Putin is a problem for the world. And they have swatted me away. "It's your problem, we have our democracy." Suddenly, because of Trump, they are learning about separation of powers, independence of the judiciary and that Ronald Reagan was right when he said, «Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction».

Garry Kasparov

Just because my dad has been an actor, I will never say no to an opportunity to act. My dad has never been in a Dharma film, he never went on 'Koffee With Karan.' So it's not as easy as people say.

Ananya Panday

For the first time in my adult life, I am proud of my country because it feels like hope is finally making a comeback.

Michel'le

That's why I made a comeback in 1988. I knew there were chances of not making it, but I didn't want to end up at sixty years old and say I should have tried when I was thirty-eight.

Guy Lafleur

It?s not that Monsanto is making money out of the blue. It?s making money by coercing and literally forcing people to pay for what was free. Take water, for instance. Water has always been free. We?ve never paid for drinking water. The World Bank says the reason water has been misused is because it was never commercially priced. But the reason it?s been misused is because it was wasted by the big users?industry, which polluted it.

Vandana Shiva

Aretha Franklin's 'Let Me in Your Life' is one of the few recent R&B albums that places the emphasis entirely and deservedly on a voice. Many R&B producers have been making records on which the singer is outshined by the song, the arrangement and the sound.

Jon Landau

Let me tell you something: for the first time in my adult life, I am proud of my country, because it feels like hope is finally making a comeback.

Michelle Obama

I just went along for the ride. It was a God-given gift. It is. So you can't say well, you wasted your life because you spent all of it acting, but I think gosh, I've never been to China, I've never been to Japan. I've never been to Yellowstone Park.

Angela Lansbury

In some circles Stalin has in fact been making a comeback. His portrait hangs above the dashboard of trucks, a symbol of blue- collar nostalgia for a tough leader.

Serge Schmemann

The Stones don't really need to do it for money, so they must get some kind of pleasure out of it. They're not like a group that's disbanded and gone away and made a comeback. They've always been there.

Mick Taylor

Honestly, I try and stay away from what's been written about me, because if you let that stuff get to you and it's not true it can drive you crazy. One thing that I have heard recently which is not true, I didn't say it, is that I believe I was quote saying 'I will never take my shirt off for a movie again.' I didn't say that.

Taylor Lautner

I was determined to create my own identity. My first hits, in fact, were straight-up rhythm and blues. My voice was compared to Aretha Franklin's - though, for my money, no one compares to Aretha.

Natalie Cole

I'm making the comeback of the century.

Bob Backlund
