I spent a great deal of time with Che Guevara while I was in Havana. I believe he was far less a mercenary than he was a freedom fighter.

I didn't let anyone push me into things I didn't want to do where my career was concerned. So why did I crumble when it came to men?

I grew up in the theater and danced ballet atrociously.

Lost in a crowd of greats, not a single Oscar. That's showbiz.

Some time ago, I told Larry King that I planned to live to be 102. I still do.

Speaking as an actress, I wish all actors would be more like Duke Wayne. And speaking as a person, it would be nice if all people could be honest and as genuine as he is. This is a real man.

Being an Irishwoman means many things to me. An Irishwoman is strong and feisty. She has guts and stands up for what she believes in. She believes she is the best at whatever she does and proceeds through life with that knowledge. She can face any hazard that life throws her way and stay with it until she wins. She is loyal to her kinsmen and accepting of others. She's not above a sock in the jaw if you have it coming.
