“I paid a price for being on game shows and that was not being taken seriously. But so what? I did what I did and I was glad. But it's a strange form of immortality.”

“I did my teen-age years in World War II. War news was a constant. We kept the radio on in our house to hear Edward R. Murrow broadcasting from the rooftops of London, describing the blitz.”

“San Francisco is a city; L.A. is a collection of suburbs that have very little in common with one another.”

“It's bad enough that I'm an actress that wants to be recognized as an actress. Instead, I am known for doing game shows.”

“I'm not good at entertainment. I don't give myself to all the interviews, game shows, or talk shows.”

“The rules of game shows limit stuff so much. I remember on 'Money From Strangers,' being in the van - not even performing - and there was a lawyer there the entire time. 'No, you can't give money for that. Yes, you can give money for that. That's a partial answer. That's a full answer.'”
