I couldn't be more proud of my eight beautiful children and wouldn't change anything about them or their heritage.
— Kate Gosselin
The fact that people really support me and want the kids and I to do well... is flattering.
I take the constructive criticism only.
Everybody in life says things at times that they regret.
The honest truth is I care so much less about my hair than everyone in America, obviously.
I've had a tummy tuck - we all know that.
I do know that no matter what, I know within myself that if I have to work at McDonald's, I will do what it takes to provide for my kids, period.
Somebody emailed that to me a bit ago saying there was going to be a Kate Gosselin wig. I thought, 'Wow, is that really what my hair looks like?'
When you look around, and very close trusted people who would never cash you in, for lack of better words, and those people do that and people leave your house and tell completely different stories, you tend not to trust people.
Let's face it - being a nurse, a single mom of eight kids, I would not be able to provide for them in any way shape or form.
I struggle with perfection.
Moms are as versatile as dads.
My focus is supporting my family and children and whatever way that comes, in a healthy way, I'm gonna do it.
It doesn't make me feel good to be conniving and manipulative. I can't do that.
I've done enough years on TV that I feel like it's a normal, comfortable, natural place to be.
If you take care of yourself and try to look nice, it's reflective of how you feel about yourself.
Obviously, as parents, we want to do what's best for the kids.
I married an Asian. I have eight biracial children, therefore I'm quite certain that I'm the last person that could be called a racist.
I never understood the importance of fans until we struggled and went through tough times.
Every day I hear from women across the country who have incredible stories but are overwhelmed with their lives, asking me for advice on everything from potty training to organization. None have asked for dancing advice, however.
I've really learned to watch what I say.
I'm married to my kids and my career.
We were in the position after our sextuplets were born that we could not pay our bills. We did the show to provide a better life for them.
Once you're a saver, you're always a saver. At the end of the day, it's more money in your pocket.
I am a mother first. I will always be a mother, and I would die for my kids if need be.
There are very few people who I can trust. I look at those people and say, Why do you keep coming back?
Stepping out of the spotlight when it's prudent to do so is a good thing.
What doesn't kill you makes you stronger. I'm going to be pretty strong until I die.
Moms don't just sit there cooking everyday and aren't always there to greet their kids at the school bus.
My hair stylist gets calls from all across the country.
In every project I do, I'm unwilling to compromise my values and morals and ethics. That's very important to me.
I'd love to be in a movie at some point.
I struggle because I really don't want to be married again - can you blame me? - but I don't want to be alone.
I am not willing to comment in public on the custody discussions regarding my children. What I will say is this: I am and always will be a mother first, but as a single working mom I will do everything necessary to provide for my kids despite the opinions of others.
I want to be out there learning from others, helping to provide insight whenever I can, though I don't consider myself an expert on anything.
I am a working mom and cameras are on me, so people catch me traveling or working.
I would love to do co-hosting somewhere to some degree.
Contrary to popular belief, I really enjoyed my time on 'Dancing With the Stars.'
When you've left your children and their mother unable to pay for the roof over their head, it's not acceptable.
I'm raising kids who are going to scrutinize people inside and out.
I just know that on TV or off TV, I've been very much targeted and torn apart.
I've never quit anything in my life.
I have a lot of responsibility.
We can only go forward; we can't go back.
I've lost a lot of control in my life.
It's my attitude! Everybody wants it.
In my real life, hard work, doing my job, working well with others and finding solutions without drama has never gotten me fired before.
I would love to be the voice of a cartoon character in a movie for my kids. I think that would be fun.
Everything has good and bad.
