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

I've never chased fame. I came into this business to be a theatre actress. I was nine when I first appeared on stage. But I can't say I would turn my back on fortune. I'm someone who enjoys the benefits of money.

If life throws you a lemon - make lemonade.

I have the absolute utmost respect for soap opera actors now. They work harder than any actor I know in any other medium. And they don't get very much approbation for it.

Dynasty was the opportunity to take charge of my career rather than waiting around like a library book waiting to be loaned out.

Age is just a number. It's totally irrelevant unless, of course, you happen to be a bottle of wine.

Well, it is quite daunting, but I made my first appearance on the stage when I was nine, because I went to a theatrical school, because I wanted to be an actress since I was eight.
