Long ago, I became more interested in the real world than in make-believe.

I'm not too proud of the movies I made as a grownup except for 'That Hagen Girl', which nobody remembers but which gave me a chance to act.

I work a seventeen hour day, and I'm personally responsible for 108 staff members in the embassy.

I stopped believing in Santa Claus when I was six. Mother took me to see him in a department store and he asked for my autograph.

Many people consider me an old friend.

I've led three lives: the acting part, wife and mother - which is a career - and international relations. I'm proud of my career, the first one, and I'm proud of the other two, too.

Intentions often melt in the face of unexpected opportunity.
