I made up my mind to be an actress when I was 4 years old.

There was no way I could live in Hollywood and not become an actress.

After all the work I've done, why should I suddenly be treated as a bona fide actress?

I was the first actress in the family, and I am still the only actress in the family. I shouldn't be saying it, but it slipped out!

It's sheer torture. I have to be up with the chickens every day and go to work on my body. I hate it, but I do it.

I'm acting when I serve as a hostess, when I run my wig business. I was born to act, and life itself is the greatest part.
