I work to stay alive.

• Old age is no place for sissies.
• The best time I ever had with Joan Crawford was when I pushed her down the stairs in Whatever Happened to Baby Jane?
• I do not regret one professional enemy I have made. Any actor who doesn't dare to make an enemy should get out of the business.
• In this business, until you're known as a monster you're not a star.
• I've lost my faith in science.
• I was never very interested in boys - and there were plenty of them - vying with one another to see how many famous women they would get into the hay.
• I'd luv to kiss ya, but I just washed my hair.
• Brought up to respect the conventions, love had to end in marriage. I'm afraid it did.
• Sex is God's joke on human beings.
• Wave after wave of love flooded the stage and washed over me, the beginning of the one great durable romance of my life.
