I worked out of desperation. I used to hit fast and run in hopes that
people wouldn't realize that I really couldn't do anything.
I don't know where it's all going to lead. I have no idea where I'm
going. I would just like to be happy.
Some kind of fun lasts longer than others.
Then the ceiling fell in and the bottom fell out I went into a spin and
I started to shout I've been hit. This is it. This is it! I . . T . . .
IT!
I don't even have many friends anymore because I backed away from them.
When things went wrong for me I didn't want them to have any part of my
trouble.
I think things are going to go right for me again. I'm not old. I'm old
enough, but I photograph young, thank God, and I still have a public. I
still get fan mail.
I was a commodity, like a hot dog. It was like hot dogs and Betty
Hutton.
I am not a great singer and I am not a great dancer, but I am a great
actress, and nobody ever let me act except [director] Preston Sturges.
He believed in me.
My husbands all fell in love with Betty Hutton. None of them fell in love with me.
