Sex appeal is a wonderful, warm, womanly healthy feeling . . . it comes only from inside, it's from nothing that's manufactured. It has nothing to do with measurements or lipstick color. To me, it's cleanliness, and youth, an effervescent desire to enjoy life.

If you want the best things in life you have to earn them for yourself.

I don't know why you people [the press] like to compare me to Marilyn or that girl, what's her name, Kim Novak. Cleavage, of course, helped me a lot to get where I am. I don't know how they got there.

We take our children everywhere we go. I don't believe in having them and then leaving them to someone else to bring up

I don't particularly enjoy publicity, it seems to just follow me around.

I hope that I have given happiness to others. I hope I have given children to the world, and that I have made some kind of a mark for myself here.

I want to earn my own way, I like having nice things but I've never accepted anything I haven't earned.
