I want to be an artist, an actress with integrity, and that includes all kinds of parts.
I enjoy acting when you really hit it right.
I want to be an artist, not... a celluloid aphrodisiac.
An actor is supposed to be a sensitive instrument.
I'm looking forward to becoming a marvelous - excuse the word marvelous - character actress. like Marie Dressler, like Will Rogers.
I think one of the basic reasons men make good friends is that they can make up their minds quickly.
If there is only one thing in my life that I am proud of, it's that I've never been a kept woman.
I am good, but not an angel. I do sin, but I am not the devil. I am just a small girl in a big world trying to find someone to love.
Men who think that a woman's past love affairs lessen her love for them are usually stupid and weak.
I used to get the feeling, and sometimes I still get it, that sometimes I was fooling somebody; I don't know who or what, maybe myself.
It's not to much fun to know yourself too well or think you do - everyone needs a little conceit to carry them through & past the falls.
A woman can bring a new love to each man she loves, providing there are not too many.
Squeezing yourself to ooze out the last ounce of sex allure is terribly hard. I'd like to do roles like Julie in Bury the Dead, Gretchen in Faust and Teresa in Cradle Song.
A sweater is like life, you get nothing out of it that you don't put into it!
