The calla lilies are in bloom again.
I don't feel the slightest interest in the next world; I think it's here. And I think anything good that you're going to do, you should do for other people here and not so you can try to have a happy time in the next world.
The time to make up your mind about people is never.
I welcome death. In death there are no interviews!
I remember as a child going around with "Votes For Women" balloons. I learnt early what it is to be snubbed for a good cause.
Who is Katharine Hepburn? It took me a long time to create that creature.
My father, a surgeon and urologist, studied sex professionally all his life. Before he died at 82, he told me he hadn't come to any conclusions about it at all.
If it interests you, they don't have to pay you. It's a fascinating business anyway-it's very nice to be paid-but when you do thrilling material, it's like buying a piece of furniture that's really good.
I can't say I believe in prizes. I was a whiz in the three-legged race - that's something you CAN win.
You sell yourself. The part that I sell is the creature. The adorable part.
Just write the best you can about the things that concern you most. I never lose sight of the fact that just being is fun.
I think the reason that very few people really fall in love with anyone is that they're not willing to pay the price.
I'm what is known as gradually disintegrating. I don't fear the next world, or anything. I don't fear hell, and I don't look forward to heaven.
I always wanted to be a movie actress. I thought it was very romantic. And it was.
