Old age is no place for sissies.

The best time I ever had with Joan Crawford was when I pushed her down the stairs in Whatever Happened to Baby Jane?

I do not regret one professional enemy I have made. Any actor who doesn't dare to make an enemy should get out of the business.

In this business, until you're known as a monster you're not a star.

I've lost my faith in science.

I was never very interested in boys - and there were plenty of them - vying with one another to see how many famous women they would get into the hay.

I'd luv to kiss ya, but I just washed my hair.

Brought up to respect the conventions, love had to end in marriage. I'm afraid it did.

Sex is God's joke on human beings.

Wave after wave of love flooded the stage and washed over me, the beginning of the one great durable romance of my life.
