I arrived in Hollywood without having my nose fixed, my teeth capped, or my name changed. That is very gratifying to me.

I just became a singer, because I could never get work as an actress.

I need instant gratification.

New York critics - I hear when one of them watched "A Star Is Born", he talked back to the screen.

Myths are a waste of time. They prevent progression.

A man who graduated high in his class at Yale Law School and made partnership in a top law firm would be celebrated. But a woman who accomplishes this is treated with suspicion.

I was kind of a wild child. I wasn't taught the niceties of life.
