Being a housewife and a mother is the biggest job in the world, but if it doesn't interest you, don't do it - I would have made a terrible mother.

It would be a terrific innovation if you could get your mind to stretch a little further than the next wisecrack.

Acting is a nice childish profession - pretending you're someone else and, at the same time, selling yourself.
