We actors can't take the credit. We love to try to claim the credit.

The thing that I love about television there are no more than two or three people watching you at a time. If there are more than two or three people in a room they're talking to each other, they're not listening to you.

I'm just happy as a lark having a good health. People say are you thinking about retiring, I don't have time to think about retiring.

The bottom line is, I'm blessed with good health. On top of that, I don't go around thinking 'Oh, I'm 90, I better do this or I better do that.' I'm just Betty. I'm the same Betty that I've always been. Take it or leave it.

Of course, nobody's tearing my door down. If you're successful you're going to intimidate and scare off the people you'd like to spend time with. They're not going to approach you. And the ones who do are often there because you are a celebrity.

There is no fool like an old fool.

I have a two-story house and a bad memory, so I'm up and down those stairs all the time. That's my exercise.
