Looking back, I guess I used to play-act all the time. For one thing, it meant I could live in a more interesting world than the one around me.

If a man isn't a certain age, he just isn't interesting.

(about her teen years) My admirers all said the same thing in different ways. It was my fault, their wanting to kiss and hug me.

I always felt I was a nobody, and the only way for me to be somebody was to be - well, somebody else. Which is probably why I wanted to act.

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

Important people are much more interesting when they are drunk and seem much more like human beings.

I don't want to play sex roles any more. I'm tired of being known as the girl with the shape.
