I'm not sure I can explain the nature of Jack Kennedy's charm, but he took life just as it came.
I simply did not want my face to be my talent.
I followed the same diet for 20 years, eliminating starches, living on salads, lean meat, and small portions.
I ask myself: Would I have been any worse off if I had stayed home or lived on a farm instead of shock treatments and medication?
Eccentric behavior is not routinely noticed around a movie set.
About my career I was serious and earnest, sometimes impatient.
Some women feel the best cure for a broken heart is a new beau.
In later years, I craved foods that were almost always fattening.
Where there is hope, there is no despair.
I am not the kind of woman who excuses her mistakes while reminding us of what used to be.
The main cause of my difficulties stemmed from the tragedy of my daughter's unsound birth and my inability to face my feelings.
When I met Jack Kennedy, he was a serious young man with a dream. He was not a womanizer, not as I understood the term.
Unlike the stage, I never found it helpful to be good in a bad movie.
Trying to make order out of my life was like trying to pick up a jellyfish.
