It has become my mission to stop the insanity of wild cats as pets.

Animal abuse is rampant in the U.S., right under everyone's eyes, for the entertainment of the public. The brutal confinement and pain of training methods of wild animals in the circus, the aquatic and theatrical shows, leads to retaliation by the animals. Eventually they find the right time to strike out, and they will.

Working with Chaplin was very amusing and strange. His films are so funny, but working with him, I found him to be a very serious man. Whereas the films of Hitchcock are macabre, he could be a very funny man to work with, always telling jokes and holding court. Of course, when I worked with Charlie he was getting older.

I really like birds. Everyone always wants me to say that I can't stand to go near them, just like they want Janet Leigh to confess that she can't bear to take a shower. Well, I'm sorry to disappoint you.

I kind of look at my modeling career and the Alfred Hitchcock years as stepping stones to what I'm doing now.

I kinda go for the Jane Eyre type of film. I am fascinated by classics.

One lion thinks it's just hilarious to tackle us. He's very funny about it... and we always know when it will happen.
