“My father was the only man I ever knew who really loved me unselfishly, who never used me for personal gain.”

Cary Grant was one of the most marvelous men I’ve ever met.

If you’re going to do something wrong, do it big, because the punishment is the same either way.

To establish yourself as an actress, you have to become well known. A girl just starting out, I would tell her to concentrate on acting, but she doesn’t have to go around wearing blankets.

I love sex. It should be animalistic, it should be sadistic, it should at times be masochistic. There are few rules and moral conventions.

Men are those creatures with two legs and eight hands.

Men are creatures with eight hands.

A lot of happiness can be brought to the mentally distraught by a little understanding.

Once you were a starlet. Then you’re a star. Can you be a starlet again?

I will never be satisfied. Life is one constant search for the betterment for me.

We eat a lot of lean meat and fresh vegetables.

My earliest memories are the best. I always try to remember the good times when Daddy was alive.

Carrying a baby is the most rewarding experience a female can enjoy. A father shares in that experience, knowing that he caused it to happen.

I guess a lot of people think that a girl who shows her bosom and wears tight dresses can’t be close to God. God has always been close to me. Only He knew what was in my heart.

Stars were made to suffer, and I am a star.

Carrying a baby is the most rewarding experience a woman can enjoy.

I hope that I have given happiness to others. I hope I have given children to the world, and that I have made some kind of a mark for myself here.

I have irrational fears, and they all go back to losing my father as a kid. I’ve never gotten over it.

I’m much more proud of being a father than being an actor.

My father always told me that. Nobody knows anything, so don’t listen to anyone else.

When my father passed away two or three years ago, I didnt listen to music for four days – thats a long time for me.

Like my father, I believe that nonviolence is the antidote to what he called ‘the triple evils of racism, poverty and militarism.’ These three evils were consuming our hopes for community in 1964, and, fifty years later, we remain divided because of their festering effects.

Often, I am asked, ‘What was your father like?’ or, ‘What would he think?’ These are very difficult questions to answer, as I was so very young when I lost my father.

My dad is Irish. I spent my childhood going back and forth between Ireland and America.

My sensei was a British karate champion named Brian Fitkin. He was my mentor and because I had a hard relationship with my dad, he became a father figure to me.
