Quotable Quotes:

"Always something new, always something I didn't expect, and sometimes it isn't horrible."

"Never let your head hang down. Never give up and sit down and grieve. Find another way."

"I see it [her days in motion pictures] as all of a piece. It's kind of like putting a quilt together. Quilt-making is very good because everything becomes equally important and equally valid, and everything forms the core of yourself. So both the good and the bad--I always felt that was the hand life dealt, and I've tried to handle it as best I could. I don't have any rancor or any anger or anything toward anyone--or toward Hollywood. Even when it was happening, I realized it was nobody's fault, but you get hurt in spite of that. But I'm very peaceful about it." (IMDB)
