Some of my foster families used to send me to the movies to get me out of the house and there I'd sit all day and way into the night. Up in front, there with the screen so big, a little kid all alone, and I loved it. I loved anything that moved up there and I didn't miss anything that happened and there was no popcorn either.

I have feelings too. I am still human. All I want is to be loved, for myself and for my talent.

Only the public can make a star. It's the studios who try to make a system out of it.

When I was 11, the whole world was closed to me. I just felt I was on the outside of the world.

When Clark Gable died, I cried for 2 days straight. I couldn't eat or sleep.

A wise girl kisses but doesn't love, listens but doesn't believe, and leaves before she is left.

It's a terrible thing to be lonesome, especially in the middle of a crowd.
