I just live one day at a time. As the days go by, the years build up.

I was a very young widow. I've been by myself for almost 50 years.

I worked very hard. Just look at my hands. I'm proof that it isn't work that kills you.

My mother died young. A lot of people wanted us to be adopted out, but before she died, my mother asked Dad to please keep the children together. He did.

For a very long time, I wasn't thought of as anyone with any credibility in the film world. Everybody is tramping through the swamp every day in this business. 'I'm worth it, I'm credible - believe me, give me a shot!' That's the way I feel on a consistent basis.

Being someone I'm not for a period of time and loving every minute of being in someone else's skin.
