I was sent successively to schools in France, Italy and Bavaria, and this erratic education was a great help afterwards.

I've always been mad about cats.

Streetcar is a most wonderful, wonderful play.

My husband, who's the greatest actor in the world, can do anything. Look at what he did in The Critic and Oedipus. In every role he gets-he did this in Richard the Third-there's nothing he can't do, nothing. Just nothing.

Some critics saw fit to say that I was a great actress. I thought that was a foolish, wicket thing to say because it put such an onus and such a responsibility onto me, which I simply wasn't able to carry.

When I was at school at Paris, I had special lessons from Mademoiselle Antoine, an actress at the Comedie Francaise, and I was taken to every sort of play. I felt very grand.

You can't act on an empty stomach, because you're breathing's all wrong.
