I really feel now like a native New Yorker. And I'm very happy here.
I have never been the mousy, stand-two-paces-behind, obedient 'little woman' type.
I never thought I was particularly good looking. But when I see old photographs, I realise that I was. I do wish I had known that at the time because beauty is power. I didn't realise how lucky I was to be young, beautiful and in Hollywood. It didn't hit me. Every day I woke up, went to the film studio and just got on with it.
I was a pin-up girl. I did it for 30 years and, quite frankly, it gets a bit boring.
The problem with beauty is that it's like being born rich and getting poorer.
Loneliness is the universal problem of rich people.
I am a fan of marriage and a fan of being committed to the right person.
Of course it's true: the public want to see young people - young people are the people who go to the cinema. It's a sad fact of life, but you've got to accept it and not whine about it.
I think it is shocking that 15- and 16-year-olds leave school unable to add up and with the reading ability of a four-year-old.
I say, 'Use it or lose it.' I have my own fitness regime, which is centred around stretching, free-weights and fast walking. I also have a trainer half of the year, as I spend my summers in the south of France where I swim a lot.
I think it has something to do with being British. We don't take ourselves as seriously as some other countries do. I think a lot of people take themselves far too seriously; I find that a very tedious attitude.
It is unseemly to undress on stage. I won't do that.
If I hear the word 'retire,' it makes me want to throw up. And then do what? Sit around all day watching television?
