I never enjoyed my work more than when I worked with William Powell. He was a brilliant actor, a delightful companion, a great friend and, above all, a true gentleman.

They say the movies should be more like life; I think life should be more like the movies.

Life is not about having and getting. It's about being and becoming.

I think that carrying on a life that is meant to be private in public is a breach of taste, common sense, and mental hygiene.

I had these slinky eyes and a sense of humor.

I got rid of all those reporters.

I was a homely kid with freckles that came out every spring and stuck on me till Christmas.
