I always wanted to be a movie actress. I thought it was very romantic. And it was.

My greatest strength is common sense. I'm really a standard brand - like Campbell's tomato soup or Baker's chocolate.

I believe how I act today will affect how I am tomorrow.

Friendship, if somebody holds out his hand toward you, you've got to reach and take it... There are too many people alone, and if you're lucky enough for somebody to want you as a friend, it's an obligation.

Acting is a nice childish profession - pretending you're someone else and, at the same time, selling yourself.

Bogart was like Henry Fonda - proud and happy to be an actor.

The terrible thing about acting in the theater is that you have to do it at night.
