"Oh, I eat whatever I want whenever I want it." — Gertrude Ederle

God has been good to me.

Don't weep for me; don't write any sob stories.

Of course one can't eat in a civilized fashion while touring in theatres. But I still manage to get my three meals a day. I find that is sufficient for training.

The doctors told me my hearing would get worse if I continued swimming, but I loved the water so much, I just couldn't stop.
