You can have manic depression without having an ounce of creativity

I think my real depressions started when I was about 16 and doing The Patty Duke Show. I would go to bed at about 10 o'clock on a Friday night and not get up again until 6:30 Monday morning

I knew from a very young age that there was something very wrong with me

I'm going to be 58, and I'm a woman. In this business, that seems to be a bigger crime than being mentally ill

All I will tell you is that I play a small role in someone's happily ever after.

I tell people to monitor their self-pity. Self-pity is very unattractive.

I'm not sure I want all my neuroses cleared up
