mother care want
I care about money, very much. I want it. I don't ever want to be without it. My mother once said about me, 'Elaine has to have money.'
drama ugly want
Drama drama drama. The public wants it, so let them get the whole ugly mess. Why not?
people want always-wrong
People will always be around to tell you you're no good or you're wrong or unwise to keep doing what you want to do. They're wrong. They're always wrong. Keep going.
want littles dames
I find it easier to abstain than do a little bit of anything. I'm not a 'little bit' kind of dame. I want it all, whatever I do.
want
I don't want to see a movie twice. I don't want to do anything twice.

I've come to the point in my life where less is more. The minute the last hammer fell on the last nail I called the real estate office.
jungle learn method school sending tiger
Marlon's going to school to learn the Method was like sending a tiger to jungle school.
funny
I'm funny when I want to be. And I'm even funny when I don't want to be.
badly paid
When I want to do something badly enough, I do it, but there is a practical side of me that thinks I should be paid fairly.

There's certainly nothing lasting and definite about the theater.
My movie career - if such a thing even exists - is laughable.
love similar
I love Birmingham, Michigan. It's lovely - you know, it's very similar to the Hamptons.
against breeding broads convent crap extending finger great schools sipping
Let me tell you about those convents. All that crap about extending the pinkie finger while sipping tea is a myth. Convent schools are breeding grounds for great broads and occasionally one-of-the-boys. Convent schools teach you to play against everything, which is what I'm still doing.
life trying word
My idea of serenity - that wonderful word that everybody's trying to get into their life - is call-waiting.
