I'm a hotel baby, absolutely: it's hard to think of a hotel I haven't stayed in.

New Yorkers stop me on the street all the time to say, 'You're terrific! You're the nuts!'

You never know what is happening to yourself when it is happening.

Making clever speeches takes a lot of work and a lot of time.

I don't have to go to a doctor and have my face changed. It terrifies me that women do that.

For me, going to London is like coming home. In fact, I've often entertained the idea of ending my days there.

There's certainly nothing lasting and definite about the theater.

I love holidays in New York. I love 'em. I want to celebrate something all the time, and New York has holidays for every day of the week, practically. I like holidays in New York City.

I do believe in the infallibility of the Pope, because I think we have to believe in something.

Why haven't I made more movies? Nobody asked me.
