I was brought up by two extremely intelligent people who gave me the greatest gift that man can give anyone, and that is freedom from fear.

With all the opportunities I had, I could have done more. And if I'd done more, I could have been quite remarkable.

I could peel you like a pear and god himself would see the justice in it.

The notion that work is a burden is a terrible mistake. Working and facing up to one's responsibilities: That's happiness.

It's a business you go into because your an egocentric. It's a very embarrassing profession.

I realised long ago that skirts are hopeless. Anytime I hear a man say he prefers a woman in a skirt, I say, 'Try one. Try a skirt.'

I think the reason that very few people really fall in love with anyone is that they're not willing to pay the price.
