Films have a certain place in a certain time period. Technology is forever.

I'm a sworn enemy of convention. I despise the conventional in anything, even the arts.

I appreciate subtlety. I have never enjoyed a kiss in front of the camera. There's nothing to it except not getting your lipstick smeared.

I've been an important star and lived a full life, yet I only hve three close friends. I guess that's all anyone can expect.

One of my favorite people is Gypsy Rose Lee. She bears out the Biblical promise that he who has, gets. And I hope she gets a lot more.

I have not been that wise. Health I have taken for granted. Love I have demanded, perhaps too much and too often. As for money, I have only realized its true worth when I didn't have it.

The public pays and feels it is entitled to participate in the personal affairs of a performer.
