“When I was little I thought, isn't it nice that everybody celebrates on my birth…” — Gloria Stuart

I wanted to be a theater actress, but I thought it would be easier to get to New York and the theater if I had a name than if I just walked the streets as a little girl from California.

I just finished my 11th book last week, so I'm ready to start the next one.

I never had a great role in a great film.

I quit after my seven-year contract with Universal was up. I quit for 33 years.
