That's a social barrier I don't think we're ready to cross. It's two different worlds. Believe me, I know the import of the relationship of one to the other. We as a society, I don't think, are ready to see a woman. ... It's just very hard for me to imagine that.
You know I'm an actress, not just a funny lady.
You can change my mind, but you gotta work harder at it.
My awards are lovely. I love to show them off.
Wow, this is the icing on the cake.
I have four other ones at home and this morning, I said, 'Girls, move over. I'm coming home with another one.' ... Everybody Loves Raymond.
This is the icing on the cake. Nine wonderful years on Everybody Loves Raymond , and to finish it off like this is wonderful.
I'm not a Southerner but, my God, my soul is, I think.
I'm from New York. I have a big mouth, and I hope we raise lots of money tonight and, more than that, the spirit of Mississippi because that has to happen. We have to bring it all back together again and feel it rising again.
There is such ageism in our country. Just because you're over 40 doesn't mean you're still not hot or exciting or talented, or whatever.
My awards are lovely. I love to show them of.
I used to sit near Marilyn Monroe in the Actor's Studio. She'd get dressed up because that was her identity. Sad. Those cameras wouldn't leave her alone. She didn't know where to hide.
Humor is imperative, more important than food. You have a choice when someone dies. You can lie down or get back into life. Do something for someone else.
Love them for who they are, and what they are they are; they are not you. Good stuff, isn't it? You have to live 73 years to get that.
