I was asked to act when I couldn't act. I was asked to sing "Funny Face" when I couldn't sing and dance with Fred Astaire when I couldn't dance and do all kinds of things I wasn't prepared for. Then I tried like mad to cope with it.

I'm half-Irish, half-Dutch, and I was born in Belgium. If I was a dog, I'd be in a hell of a mess!

I am not beautiful. My mother once called me an ugly duckling. But,listed separately, I have a few good features.

When the chips are down, you are alone, and loneliness can be terrifying. Fortunately, I've always had a chum I could call. And I love to be alone. It doesn't bother me one bit. I’m my own company.

I don't believe in collective guilt, but I do believe in collective responsibility.

If I'm honest I have to tell you I still read fairy-tales and I like them best of all.

To pull off any look, wear it with confidence.
