I was fortunate enough to work under directors who were, most of them, brilliant, emotional men.

I had known Cole Porter in Hollywood and New York, spent many a warm hour at his home, and met the talented and original people who were drawn to him.

Where there is hope, there is no despair.

A romantic, I think, picks the rose and is careless with the thorn.

In show business the saying seems too often true: it isn't enough to succeed; someone else must fail.

I dated dozens of young men, had fun with all, made commitments to none.

I used up every cent I had earned as an actress.
