I hear about stars being torn to pieces by fans. It never happened to me and I never saw it happen to anyone else.

I think any movie star who refuses autographs has a hell of a nerve.

When I was on the air a lot my throat and vocal chords got tired. If you don't vary your tones you can't get pretty tired of your own voice..

I was a dummy in school..

If I had my way, I'd do all my entertaining on the front steps.

A producer has to know all about everything from set-building to costumes to acting.

I know what's good for me. I can't play black or gray. I can't be a villain or anything close to one. I have to play white.

I'm working myself to death..

Maybe I thought too much about picking up the money and not enough about the really good parts..

I wish I were the type who could walk into a place and have everybody love me. But I'm not, and there's no use wishing.
