I'm trying, now that I am in my dotage, to use a lot less sugar and my husband and I really try to keep close to a minimum of fat; chicken, fish, loads of salads and legumes. We both love all of those. To be honest, nothing that is in our diet is that original. We eat seafood but we do not eat shellfish. On the other hand, if my body says to me, "eat meat" I do. I listen to my body, I think that's important.

It is through art that we will prevail and we will endure. It lives on after us and defines us as people.

I believe staying young at heart is all in one's personal attitude... you can't instill that in anyone.

I'm 85, and I'm still a sexual being, or a sensual being.

Is there a grandmother that isn't spunky on television? Is there such a creature?

This is my idea of heaven, coming home and watching the news.

I love playing people who don't have a sense of humor for instance, there's nothing funnier to me than a person with no sense of humor.
