Lindsay Wagner's Quotes

• There is only one issue: man's lack of experience in feeling his Divine self and his innate connection with the Divine. All other issues stem from this.
• No matter who rejects you, don't lose touch with your higher self, with the higher powers, with anything that you can find which is of the light, that will give you strength in those times when you feel so lonely.
• It's about sharing. You just give what you have to give wherever you go, and you let God handle the rest.
• [on the 2007 TV remake of Bionic Woman (2007), which was canceled after 8 episodes] On a technical level, it was very good, but I don't think they understood the show. It was steeped in that old-school thinking. It was like a lot of things today, angry and dark.

But public outcry was so immediate and intense that Universal had to resurrect Jaime Sommers from the dead. Wagner and her agent negotiated a significant salary increase to $25000 per episode for another two-part episode of The Six Million Dollar Man (1974). That led to her own series The Bionic Woman (1976), where she commanded $500,000/per year; a guarantee of five feature films; plus 12½% of the royalties on all Bionic Woman artifacts.
