There ain't never a horse that never been rode; there ain't never a rider that can't be thrown.

No mistake, I shall regret the absence of your keen mind; unfortunately, it is inseparable from an extremely disturbing body.

This is a terrible place to spend your life in. Nobody in Hollywood is normal. Absolutely nobody. And they have such a vicious attitude toward one another. They say much worse things about each other than outsiders say about them, and nobody has any real friends.

Until I came along all the leading men were handsome, but luckily they wrote a lot of stories about the fellow next door.

Having to work hard never had any real appeal for me, and that may have some connection with me being in the movies.

I'm just glad it'll be Clark Gable who's falling on his face and not Gary Cooper.

Please make sure everyone knows how much their messages mean to me. They have added greatly to my peace of mind. I only wish some of the writers would take a more positive approach to the menace of cancer. I've got it, sure; but I'm not afraid to use the word. Some of them act like it's a dirty word. That's the wrong attitude. We should all bring it out in the open, recognize that it exists, and fight it! Cancer is everybody's enemy. We can't 'think' an enemy out of existence by ignoring it.
