You Could Put All The Talent I

I Wasn't A Sex Symbol, I Was A Sex Zombie.

Alan Ladd Was A Marvelous Person In His Simplicity. In So Many Ways We Were Kindred Spirits. We Both Were Professionally Conceived Through Hollywood's Search For Box Office And The Types To Insure The Box Office. And We Were Both Little People. Alan Wasn't As Short As Most People Believe. It Was True That In Certain Films Alan Would Climb A Small Platform Or The Girl Worked In A Slit Trench. We Had No Such Problems Together.

I Think I've Developed Into An Actress Because I've Worked Darn Hard At It And I've Learned A Great Deal From A Lot Of Gifted People. And If I Have Nothing Else To Show For My Life, Apart From A Scrapbook Full Of Cuttings, I Have The Knowledge That My Early Days In Hollywood Weren't In Vain.

I've Reached A Point In My Life Where It's The Little Things That Matter... I Was Always A Rebel And Probably Could Have Got Much Farther Had I Changed My Attitude. But When You Think About It, I Got Pretty Far Without Changing Attitudes. I'm Happier With That.

You Could Put All The Talent I Had Into Your Left Eye And Still Not Suffer From Impaired Vision.
