When I first went to New York I was right out of high school, I was 17 years old, and I had never seen a building over two stories high.

People often ask me what happened to my first husband? And I say, I killed him.

My life has never been easy. It's like all the major events of my life have always been difficult.

I had four children. And my youngest when we started was like, oh, gosh, 2 or a little less. And sometimes my kids would say to me, you know, how come you don't scream at those kids on television like you do us?

I don't have to be logical - I'm a mother.

It takes a lot of courage to be happy (after the death of a spouse), but I've got courage, so I think I will be happy again.

I still get so much fan mail addressed to Carol Brady, and I think a lot of it's through the Net. And I always answer it, if it's legible.
