“I felt like, you know, my presence in the world of cinema had a different meanin…” — Raquel Welch

The whole sex-symbol thing is part of what I do as an actress. It's a kind of character I play. It's part of me, but not the whole me.

People do stop me and talk to me about something they saw that they loved. It is very satisfying, but I have my own opinions.

Without women to nurture in this world, how do - how do men get by? How do children get by? How does society get by at all?

I have a very, very good life. I'm grateful for all of my friends, my family and the life that I have, and the possibilities in my future.
