What a different world it was when I first sailed for Europe in 1930, with my mother, sister, and brother to spend six months abroad.

I was not cut out to be a rebel.

I loved to eat. For all of Hollywood's considerable rewards, I was hungry for most of those twenty years.

The things we ignore often come back to us in our sleep.

I existed in a world that never is - the prison of the mind.

Joe Schenck, a top 20th Century-Fox executive, once said to me that he really believed I had a future, and that was because I was the only girl who could survive so many bad pictures.

Everyone should see Hollywood once, I think, through the eyes of a teenage girl who has just passed a screen test.
