Maybe there is no peace in this world. I don't know ... But I know as long as we live we must stay true to ourselves.

The first thing I look for in a woman is warmth-femininity. It's got nothing to do with a pretty face.

Since my stroke, I have begun to see so many miracles all around me. I look out of the window in my room: verdant grass, silver-tipped oak leaves, tall palm trees gentle swaying as they reach to the sky, masses and masses of roses. All colors, so many shapes, exquisite fragrances.

No matter how bad things are, they can always be worse. So what if my stroke left me with a speech impediment? Moses had one, and he did all right.

If I have to speak in public, I am terrified.

Life is like a B-picture script! It is that corny. If I had my life story offered to me to film, I'd turn it down.

I never had any desire to be a film actor. I never thought I was the good-looking movie type, which I assumed they wanted.
