Personal Quote:

[An interview for a family magazine was going very well until the reporter asked what her hobbies were.] I don't know. Say anything you like, but don't say I love to work. That sounds like Mary Pickford, that prissy bitch. Just say I like to pinch babies and twist their legs. And get drunk." [She and Pickford were actually good friends]. See more »
