The Loss Of Magic Is The Denial

Don't Be Afraid To Go Out On A Limb. It's Where All The Fruit Is.

I Make My Mistakes In Public.

When Times Are Bad, People Like To Lose Themselves In The Sheer Glamour Of Another Period: Beautiful Wardrobes, Magnificent Meals Served In Elegant Settings.

I Do Miss The Stage. There's Nothing Like It, Nothing. When I Did My One-woman Show And Played The Palace And Played The Gershwin And All That, I Did - What? - Eight Shows Or Maybe More A Week. Of Course You Can't Do Anything Else, And You Can't Run Quickly For A Cab In The Rain, And You Can't Have A Drunken Love Affair. You Can't Do Any Of That. Because You've Got To Be Perfectly Healthy. And I Guess I Value Enjoying My Life A Little Bit More Than The Discipline These Days.

I'm Very Aware, But I'm Very Naïve. When You Are Really Naïve And Expecting Safety And Expecting The Best, You Don't Feel You're Taking Risks. You Can Get Smacked A Little, But Usually It Works Out Pretty Well. I Would Say That, As Much As You Can Instill Your Open-minded Naivety, If You're Basically Open Minded, Then You Can Do Damn Near Anything.
