I was just myself. I didn't know any other way to be, or any other way to live.

I love to swim in the nude and roam around the house in the nude. You're just as free as a bird!

My favorite actress of all times is Bette Davis in Dark Victory. I have seen it six or seven times, and I still cry.

I never kept up with the fashions. I believed in wearing what I thought looked good on me.

For years I had my hair parted down the middle in a ponytail, tucked down around the sides... Well, I went and cut the bangs, and I've been wearing them ever since. They say it's my trademark.

It makes me feel wonderful that people still care for me... that I have so many fans among young people, who write to me and tell me I have been an inspiration.
