Claude Rains was what we call an actor's actor. He was very involved with himself and his performance.

I have enjoyed acting very much, because I know it's not for real!

When I was little I thought, isn't it nice that everybody celebrates on my birthday? Because it's July 4th.

It was a struggle treating Claude Rains as my lover, but we were friendly. It was no great love affair.

I have a private press. I'm a book artist. I publish books of other authors and artists. I do the illustrating. I set the type. I print it myself on my press. I do everything but bind it.

I quit after my seven-year contract with Universal was up. I quit for 33 years.

A woman's heart is a deep ocean of secrets.
