I loved acting. I didn’t particularly like being a movie star.
My father had a very simple view of life: you don’t get anything for nothing. Everything has to be earned, through work, persistence and honesty. My father also had a deep charm, the gift of winning our trust. He was the kind of man with whom many people dream of spending an evening.
The idea of my life as a fairy tale is itself a fairy tale.
Emancipation of women has made them lose their mystery.
I was hired to be an actress, not a personality for the press.
I've had happy moments in my life, but I don't think that happiness-- being happy-- is a perpetual state that anyone can be in. Life isn't that way.
