Life is a predator: you have to eat it before it eats you.

I loathe conflict, and I loathe not getting along well with people, so I always try very hard to be on the best terms with the people I work with.

It is unseemly to undress on stage. I won't do that.

I used to go over to Gene Kelly's house and play volleyball, and Paul Newman and Marlon Brando were always there. You kind of took it for granted because I was 20, 21, 22, and they were a bit older - well, Gene certainly was. But it was just part of daily living. They were in the same profession, and you didn't think that much about it.

I think health is another exceedingly important thing.

My parents instilled in me that life was going to be very difficult and that I'd have to work for everything.

I've never yet met a man who could look after me. I don't need a husband. What I need is a wife.
