As you train and as you develop your talents, you do get better, hopefully, or you get out of the business.

I had a lot of fun with Frank Sinatra, because he was such a hooligan, and so to himself, he was the king, and everything was his way, and I enjoyed watching that.

You probably only know what you've read [about Marilyn Monroe].You didn't know her. The people who talk about her didn't know her either.

I still perform live primarily. I just keep traveling and doing live shows. The main difference in film, you know in your mind that you are doing it for posterity, you are doing for the eventual audience and it will be around forever.

My belief also is that Marilyn Monroe passed away long before she should have left us.

I think the press does, too; it's just the few crazies and paparazzi that give them a bad name. Real writers write good things. My daughter's a writer, and she's a quality writer.
