QUOTES:
All I ever got out of any of my marriages was the two years Artie Shaw financed on an analyst’s couch.
I have only one rule in acting–trust the director and give him heart and soul.
When I lose my temper, honey, you can’t find it any place.
I don’t understand people who like to work and talk about it like it was some sort of goddamn duty. Doing nothing feels like floating on warm water to me. Delightful, perfect.
