I haven't been back to London for 40 years to do a play, so to play Madame Arcati there, she would be tickled to death knowing that that was what I was doing. I hope she would. She was a wonderfully unique and very special, very darling woman.

The theater is magical and addictive.

Mystery is something that appeals to most everybody.

I'm the bionic woman. I have a very strong constitution, and I take excruciatingly good care of myself.

I can't say that I deserve longlife; I don't. I've just been around long enough. They say, "My God, she's still here."

I started in London, as a kid. My mother knew I had sort of an inbred talent. She was an actress, so I inherited it from her. But I think I got a lot of it from my grandfather, who was a great politician.

I honestly feel that "Murder, She Wrote" stands alone, as many of the other great shows of the past 35, 40 years do. It stands alone, and it's still on. It's still all over the world, "Murder, She Wrote," Jessica Fletcher and "Murder, She Wrote."
