I've been lucky enough to play some funny, nasty ladies in my day, and if you can make them foolish, they're even funnier.

I accredit animals for keeping me going when times were bad.

I do have a mouth - I will say. I speak up when I see things I don't care for.

It's always a thrill to walk through a Broadway stage door.

There is nothing more joyful to me than hearing a live audience laugh. Especially when I planned it that way!

As much as I love to dance, and I still take class, aerobics and that sort of thing, and I still move very well and all of that - I'm really not a dancer anymore.

I love stage actors. There's something special about all people who have to do a performance eight shows a week, and musical people, especially, are so much fun.

Hate is strong, fear is mighty, jealousy is powerful, but love is invincible.

We clutch our bellies and roll on the floor...When I say this, it should mean laughter, not poison.

The man who will use his skill and constructive imagination to see how much he can give for a dollar instead of how little he can give for a dollar is bound to succeed.

Fear is finding fault with the future.

For the immediate future, at least, the outlook (stocks) is bright.

Weakness arouses evil. The American people know this.

The stock market has predicted nine of the last five recessions.

You can't ever be really free if you admire somebody too much.

Loving-kindness is the better part of goodness. It lends grace to the sterner qualities of which this consists.

I create the world that I live in.
