I have always had a lot more trouble with my truths than with my deceits

I don't think the Hollywood community is interested in what I can do. That's all right. I've never looked for a job in my life, and I'm not going to start now. I have plenty to keep me busy.

Nobody understands that by the time the addiction has set in the alcoholic is mandated to drink ... he cannot not drink! Nobody wakes up in the morning and says, 'Jiminy Cricket, I feel sensational! My life is really in great shape! I think I'll become an alcoholic!' I firmly believe that when a shaking-to-pieces alcoholic says he needs a drink or he will die, he means it.

With two leftover husbands to account for, my wicked soul has just about shriveled and died

Like many alcoholics, I was a staggering woman in a chic apartment, sick and utterly disgusting.

I am rich from the bequests other gifted people have seen fit to leave to me.

I find it next to impossible to remain politely silent when people prate to me about the glory of being given another chance to live happily ever after!
