In my wildest dreams, I could not have imagined a sweeter life.

Life is too short to be living somebody else's dream.

People get their information in different ways now. And we are a little poorer for it, because the way you get information affects what you learn.

I do think the reality is, there is a general recognition of what I've accomplished.

I didn't want to repeat my parents life. I saw in their lives a routine and a lack of dreaming, a lack of the possibilities, a lack of passion. And I didn't want to live without passion.

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.

I am in very good health. I've never felt better.
