I Loved Fencing And Dancing And Elocution.

My Birth Sign Is Scorpio And They Eat Themselves Up And Burn Themselves Out. I Swing Between Happiness And Misery. I Am Part Prude And Part Nonconformist. I Say What I Think And I Don't Pretend And I Am Prepared To Accept The Consequences Of My Actions.

When I Come Into The Theatre I Get A Sense Of Security. I Love An Audience. I Love People, And I Act Because I Like Trying To Give Pleasure To People.

My Friends, When I Was Young, Were Always Older Than I Was, And I've Always Liked Them. And I Love Old Men And Old Ladies, Really. But I've Known More Elderly Men, Like Max Beerbohm, Like Beranard Berenson, Like Somerset Maugham, Winston Churchill-i'd Put Him First, Anyway-what They Say Is So Wise And So Good. They Know What They're Talking About.

Classical Plays Require More Imagination And More General Training To Be Able To Do. That's Why I Like Playing Shakespeare Better Than Anything Else.

I'm Not A Film Star; I Am An Actress. Being A Film Star Is Such A False Life, Lived For Fake Values And For Publicity.
