It's a pain in the ass, show business. And the only time that I really enjoy it is when I'm in front of an audience and they're reacting to me.

I think it's the wrong way around to say when you get older move to the country. I think when you get older you move to New York. If you're a nice broad they'll look after you.

You cannot tell an audience a lie. They know it before you do; before it's out of your mouth, they know it's a lie.

As a diabetic, I'm a walking picnic. I have to eat measured amounts of food at certain times.

Fear is the base of what everybody does wrong in their lives.

Onstage, nothing is as important as truth, nothing. As soon as you lie, they know it.

Certain type of actresses get younger instead of older. I always say, 'Only ingenues age.'
