I Had Read The Criticisms Of Me And My Movies And They Were Discerning. They Said That Crawford Needs A New Deal, And They Asked If I Was Doomed To Explore Forever The Emotional Misfortunes Of The Super-sexed Modern Young Woman. And So, To Break Away From The Pattern, I Wanted To Do "the Gorgeous Hussy". Selznick Laughed At Me. 'you Can't Do A Costume Picture. You're Too Modern.' But I Begged And Begged And Begged, And So They Let Me Do It. I Was Totally Miscast.

If You've Earned A Position, Be Proud Of It. Don't Hide It. I Want To Be Recognized. When I Hear People Say, 'there's Joan Crawford!' I Turn Around And Say, 'hi! How Are You!'

Be Afraid Of Nothing.

You Know The Troubles I've Had With My Two Older Children. I Can't Understand Why It Turned Out So Badly. I Tried To Give Them Everything. I Loved Them And Tried To Keep Them Near Me, Even When They Didn't Return My Love. Well, I Couldn't Make Them Love Me, But They Could Have Shown Some Respect. I Couldn't Insist On Love, But I Could Insist On Respect.
