Diamonds are a girls bestfriend

When you're young and healthy you can plan on Monday to commit suicide, and by Wednesday you're laughing again.

Some people have been unkind. If I say I want to grow as an actress, they look at my figure. If I say I want to develop, to learn my craft, they laugh. Somehow they don't expect me to be serious about my work.

People always ask me if I believe diamonds are a girl's best friend. Frankly, I don't.

I've read all of Shakespeare and practiced a lot of lines. ... I am going to do Juliet first. Don't laugh. What, with what makeup, costume and camera can do, my acting will create a Juliet who is 14, an innocent virgin.

What good am I? I can't have kids. I can't cook. I've been divorced three times. Who would want me?

My public is growing up just as I am. After all, I'm not 19 anymore and if I stick with the sex bit, who will be paying to see me when I'm 50?
