"I feel much closer to people at the bottom than to people at the top and they (the royal family) don't forgive me for it."

"I had so many dreams as a young girl. I hoped for a husband to look after me, he would be a father figure to me, he would support me, encourage me, say 'Well done' or 'That wasn't good enough.' I didn't get any of that. I couldn't believe it."

"I like to live as normally as possible. Walking along the pavement without a bodyguard gives me such a thrill."

"One minute I was a nobody, the next minute I was Princess of Wales, mother, media toy, member of this family and it was just too much for one person to handle. "

"I would like to be a Queen in people's hearts... someone's got to go out there and love people and show it."

"Being a princess isn't all it's cracked up to be."

"I think the biggest disease the world suffers from in this day and age is the disease of people feeling unloved. I know that I can give love for a minute, for half an hour, for a day, for a month,  but I can give. I am very happy to do that, I want to do that."

"I'm as thick as a plank."

"HIV does not make people dangerous to know, so you can shake their hands and give them a hug : Heaven knows they need it."

"There were three of us in this marriage, so it was a bit crowded."

"Any sane person would have left long ago. But I cannot. I have my sons."

"I don't even know how to use a parking meter, let alone a phone box."

"I wear my heart on my sleeve."

"I understand people's suffering, people's pain, more than you will ever know yourself."

"I'd like to be a queen in people's hearts but I don't see myself being queen of this country."
