I've spent years when I've not been in the limelight at all and I'm perfectly happy living my life without being swooped on by paparazzi.

I don't believe in dieting.

I've three children, three grandchildren, I work, I travel, and I'm very happily married. I'm very satisfied and happy with my life and there really isn't anything I want.

From the age of 17 I was a pin-up girl. I did it for 30 years and, quite frankly, it gets a bit boring.

And then I wrote my first autobiography when I - well, it was 23 years ago. And since then I've written about one book every two years.

Only fine cigars are worth smoking and only men who smoke fine cigars are worth kissing.

I don't look my age, I don't feel my age and I don't act my age. To me age is just a number.
