More quotes by June Lockhart

I did Lassie for six years and I never had anybody come up to me and say, "It made me want to be a farmer."

I thoroughly enjoy seeing a beautifully proportioned nude male. So did Michelangelo and Rodin. But if the male is blubbery, he should keep his beer barrel to himself and not be a portly polluter.

I loved my craft and my cast members. … I never forgot that it is all make-believe.

I think it's lovely to have one part for which you're known. Some actors work all their lives and never achieve this.
But acting is what I do; it's not what I am. And I have always had a varied acting career and a very full life beyond my acting endeavors.
