Singin' in the Rain (1952) and childbirth were the two hardest things I ever had to do in my life.

I have the largest private collection in the world [of Hollywood memorabilia].

I've always had my guard. I have my cook and my guard. I want to eat, and I want to live.

I think men like the boobie shows. Vegas will always be Vegas.

I also have a pair of ruby red slippers from the 'Wizard of Oz' and Dorothy's gingham dress...and on and on. I saved as much as I could and still do, because people are still interested in it.

Joe DiMaggio was quite mean to Marilyn Monroe when they were married. But after she died, he did tend to her grave, which made up for it.

When I was doing theater in the 1950's, 60's and 70's we weren't allowed to film any of the shows that I did, it was against union rules. It was a stupid law, because so much is lost. We now have no record of these famous stage plays, so it turned out to be very narrow-minded thinking.
