I got around a lot, and lots of people talked to me. I salted down stories by the barrel load.

Ann Sothern's dressing room...was unbelievably lush and beautiful. More elegant than many homes I've been in.

Nobody's interested in sweetness and light.

I think Lilyan (Tashman) is one of the most amusing people I know but I believe she dresses in too flamboyant a manner. Where some women wear one or two diamond clasps, she wears four!

Smart writers never understand why their satires on our town are never successful. What they refuse to accept is that you can't satirize a satire.

Lucille Ball hates the color of her hair, too, and says `I should wear a sign on my chest saying I hate it, but Technicolor demands it.'

I couldn't remember ever having seen a young man with such power, so many facets of expression, so much sheer invention as an actor.
