Responsibility is the ability to respond.

I'm happy that I have brought laughter because I have been shown by many the value of it in so many lives, in so many ways.

I'm sometimes scared of everything that has happened to us. We didn't think Desilu Productions would grow so big. We merely wanted to be together and have two children.

It's a helluva start, being able to recognize what makes you happy.

I regret the passing of the studio system. I was very appreciative of it because I had no talent.

My ideal of womanhood has always been the pioneer woman who fought and worked at her husband's side. She bore the children, kept the home fires burning; she was the hub of the family, the planner and the dreamer.

Whether we're prepared or not, life has a habit of thrusting situations upon us.
