As an actress, emotions are my business, my stock-in-trade. As such, I've dealt with them nearly all my life.

A pleasant voice, which has to include clear enunciation, is not only attractive to those who hear it... its appeal is permanent.

I couldn't bear it if anyone knew I had hardly any self-confidence at all.

I've always been scared to death of pain - afraid, even, to think of it.

I do not hold with those who think it is all right to do whatever you want so long as it doesn't hurt anyone. Who's to be the judge of that?

I'm not sure the public knows what it wants.

I'd thought of myself as a great big motion picture star from the time I was 6.
