Would You Believe, I Am Still Offered

I've Never Met An Animal I Didn't Like, And I Can't Say The Same Thing About People.

I Think Everything In My Life Has Led To My Animal Welfare Work.

The Succession Of Cheerful, Period Musicals I Made, Plus Oscar Levant's Widely Publicized Remark About My Virginity, Contributed To What Has Been Called My "image", Which Is A Word That Baffles Me. There Never Was Any Intent On My Part Either In My Acting Or In My Private Life To Create Any Such Thing As An Image.

If A Man Does Something Silly, People Say, 'isn't He Silly?' If A Woman Does Something Silly, People Say, 'aren't Women Silly?

I Had Been Involved In Animal Welfare Groups, But Ddal Presented An Opportunity To Actually Create And Pass Legislation Aimed At Issues Which Really Matter To So Many People. From Local Spaying And Neutering Ordinances, To Legislation Against Puppy Mills, To Standards To Prevent Animals From Being Tested For The Sake Of A New Cosmetic, We Could - And Did - Make A Difference.
