I always say now that I'm in my blonde years. Because since the end of my marriage, all of my girlfriends have been blonde.

I think being connected to younger people helps to keep you young and gives you a young attitude.

My folks were farm people from Nebraska, so I like home cooking.

Without question, love in its various permutations is what we need more of in this world. The idea that the concept of marriage will be sullied by same-sex marriage is ridiculous. Heterosexuals haven't been doing that well at it on their own.

Could I be in a better place and happier than I am today? I don't think so.

After world war all we got was a lot of conformity, and conservatism and when I was in college at the university of Illinois the skirt lengths dropped instead of going up as they had during the roaring twenties and I knew that was a very bad sign, and it is symbolic and reflective of a very repressive time, and some of that was laid the feet of the cold war.

I looked back on the roaring Twenties, with its jazz, 'Great Gatsby' and the pre-Code films as a party I had somehow managed to miss.
