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 never never thought it would be like this. … Chemically I'm not put together for anything like this. I'm not sexy. I honestly thought if I did steady, sensible work that maybe when I was 30 or 35 I would get approval as a good actress.
