Quotes
"[Barbara Walters] wanted everyone to believe and think and act as if [the women on 'The View'] get along and are really good friends and happy and hang out together, and, you know, that's just not the reality. I'm not saying they loathe each other, but the fact of the matter is there was not a lot of camaraderie off camera."—Rosie O'DonnellLA Times: Rosie O'Donnell on 'The View' (November 20, 2008)
"Arguing about politics is not the best use of my talent. I didn't grow up thinking, 'I hope I can talk about politics.' If you watch my stand-up comedy, I talk about my life, my family. It only became about [politics] with the job on The View."—Rosie O'DonnellLA Times: Rosie O'Donnell on 'The View' (November 20, 2008)
