“I was in the original cast of 'Sunset Boulevard.' I played Betty. But ...” — Alice Ripley Quote

“I was in the original cast of 'Sunset Boulevard.' I played Betty. But I wasn't on the cast album.”

“A likable character isn't one who does nothing wrong.”

“It's heartbreaking to see theater people be forced to accept the business side of show business.”

“Betty Ford and I were colleagues for years, working together for women's rights in Washington, D.C., and elsewhere in the country.”

“It was Jimi Hendrix that I first got into when Betty Mabry turned me on to him.”

“In previous roles, I have thought of my body as 'Betty's body,' and I try not to eat too many dinner rolls - please don't fire me! I'll make crazy choices from the neck up, but from the neck down, it's just me trying to suck it in. And in 'GLOW,' my whole body was required to do a function and not just to look as good as possible in a costume.”
