I never dreamt that I would do all the things that I have done. But things just happened to me all the time.

I have no nationality, no country.

I take off my makeup with Ponds cold cream, and then I wash myself with gentle soap and water, and that's it.

I do not really shop. Most of my clothes I make. I dress simply.

I wonder if it is harder for a woman who was beautiful to get older or a woman who was never looked at.

I would never become a big, big model in the commercial sense because I was such a type; you couldn't use me in everything.

I am China, pronounced as Chee-na. And I think it's time the world lets older women age gracefully.
