I've Never Considered Myself To Be Beautiful,

I Tell Actresses, "if You're Too Tall, If You're Too Fat, You're Not Going To Work. I Don't Care How Talented You Are." It's A Business, And Sex Sells.

Me And My Sisters Were Taught That If Our Eyes Worked And Our Legs Worked, We Were Beautiful. We Had So Many Kids In Our Family That If We All Got In Front Of The Mirror And Were Ashamed Of Browns And Golds And Yellows And Whites, And We Believed What Society Told Us - That The Darker People Were Less Attractive And The Lighter Ones Were Prettier - We Would Have Had Sibling Murders. My Family, Being Half-rural And Half-military, Just Came From A Different Place.

Some Day I Want To Play A Grandmother. And A Foxy One At That!

I Don't Think I Can Break Down Any Doors, But I'm Thinking, "maybe I Can Be A Cameraman, Because I Love The Cameras." And The Cameraman Would Show Me How To Thread The Film, How To Repair It, The Lenses. That's When You Become, Like, Goony Goo-goo About It. You Breathe And Eat Camera, And All Of A Sudden, You Don't Want Anything Else In The World. You Finally Know, "this Is My Calling." When You're Passionate About Something, It Doesn't Become Work. It's Art And It's Fun. It's Arduous, It's Sweaty.

Coming From The '50s, Things Were Very Violent.
