I'd never been content in America

Early on, I found the attention completely embarrassing. I'd cringe if I saw my picture on the cover of a magazine.

I don't think I would have been a good mother. Being a parent brings immense responsibility. It's a Herculean task. It would be almost too much for me.

I basically put myself into directors' hands and let them tell me what to do, and the more they told me what to do, the more I liked it.

Most of the time I spent in America, I was having a love affair with some American or other. I was just passing through but stayed because of these chaps.

I'd never been content in America

I think there has always been an obsession with youth and beauty. What's missing is the equal obsession with respect for…older people…and their wisdom and knowledge and courage.
