Any girl can look glamorous .... just stand there and look stupid
Gratitude is riches. Complaint is poverty.
I have found that when you are deeply troubled, there are things you get from the silent devoted companionship of a dog that you can get from no other source.
I like joy; I want to be joyous. I want to smile and I want to make people laugh. And that`s all I want. I like being happy. I want to make others happy.
Killing an animal to make a coat is sin. It wasn't meant to be, and we have no right to do it. A woman gains status when she refuses to see anything killed to be put on her back. Then she's truly beautiful.
I had a wonderful family including my aunts, uncles and cousins but they've all gone to heaven.
If it's true that men are such beasts, this must account for the fact that most women are animal lovers.
When I was a teeny little girl, I was in dancing school, and I sang.
It was the only ambition I ever had - not to be a dancer or Hollywood movie star, but to be a housewife in a good marriage.
Middle age is youth without levity, and age without decay.
Any girl can look glamorous... just stand there and look stupid.
The really frightening thing about middle age is that you know you'll grow out of it.
I've never met an animal I didn't like, and I can't say the same thing about people.
When I was a teeny little girl, I was in dancing school, and I sang. We had to put a dance to a song, so I went to the 10-cent store one day and looked at all the sheet music. It was all laid out, and I picked 'Life Is Just a Bowl of Cherries.'
Well I do find the beauty in animals. I find beauty everywhere. I find beauty in my garden.
I'm going to do as much as I can for the animal world, and I'll never stop.
I've just always loved animals.
The happiest times in my life were the days when I was traveling with Les Brown and his band.
I'm tired of being thought of as Miss Goody Two-Shoes... the girl next door, Miss Happy-Go-Lucky.
If there is a Heaven, I'm sure Rock Hudson is there because he was such a kind person.
I never retired.
Vulgarity begins when imagination succumbs to the explicit.
I rented a place that I could have dogs - not in my house. I rented a big place. And I was able to have the SPCA every end of the week bring many, many dogs to me. They all were in nice places, clean, everything was fine. I took good care of them. And so many people called.
I don't even like parties.
If I'd find a dog, I'd try to find the owner, of course, but it was mine! I just can't live without them; I love them so much. I have cats, too. People call me all the time and say, 'We know of a couple of cats people don't care for,' and I say, 'Bring them!' That's it - two words. I'm always open for that.
Sometimes I think I should have stayed longer and I should have done more films.
I like Michael Buble.
I like to sing love songs.
Wrinkles are hereditary. Parents get them from their children.
Whatever will be will be.
I always feel a rise in my scalp or in the backs of my wrists when something is special, whether it be a song or a man.
I liked being married instead of the girl who's looking for a guy.
I don't know if I want to get married again.
