If I'd observed all the rules, I'd never have got anywhere.

I used to get the feeling, and sometimes I still get it, that I was fooling somebody - I don't know who or what - maybe myself. I have feelings some days where there are scenes with a lot of responsibility, and I'll wish, 'Gee, if only I had been a cleaning woman.'

My work is the only ground I've ever had to stand on.

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

Of the nude pictures: Sure I posed. I needed the money.

Don't let your fear of failing triumph over the joy of participating.

In Hollywood a girl's virtue is much less important than her hairdo.
