“It wasn't sexual in its element. I wasn't being exploited. I was doing...” — Lesley-Anne Down Quote

“It wasn't sexual in its element. I wasn't being exploited. I was doing what happened. It was very challenging because I played Phyllis from 15 years old to 53 when she died of breast cancer.”

“That Days of Our Lives thing for a week nearly killed me.”

“When I get to my deathbed, I don't want to take my last breath and say, Well, how glorious. I've left the world my acting credits. I won't even think that.”

“Women who have been recently diagnosed with breast cancer can learn a tremendous amount from women who have already been treated.”

“Breast cancer is being detected at an earlier, more treatable stage these days, largely because women are taking more preventive measures, like self-exams and regular mammograms. And treatment is getting better too.”

“If you have a friend or family member with breast cancer, try not to look at her with 'sad eyes.' Treat her like you always did; just show a little extra love.”
