I don't know what that Method is. Acting is life, to me, and should be.

I'm not a film star; I am an actress. Being a film star is such a false life, lived for fake values and for publicity.

Scarlett: You should die of shame to leave me here alone and helpless. Rhett: You helpless? (laughs) Heaven help the Yankees if they capture you.

I've always been mad about cats.

I'm a Scorpio, and Scorpios eat themselves out and burn themselves up like me.

I always know my lines.

My birth sign is Scorpio and they eat themselves up and burn themselves out. I swing between happiness and misery. I am part prude and part nonconformist. I say what I think and I don't pretend and I am prepared to accept the consequences of my actions.

But I remember the morning after The Mask of Virtue-which is the first play I did at the West End-that some critics saw fit to be as foolish as to say that I was a great actress. And I thought, that was a foolish, wicked thing to say, because it put such an onus and such a responsibility onto me, which I simply wasn't able to carry. And it took me years to learn enough to live up to what they said-for those first notices. I find it so stupid. I remember the critic very well, and have never forgiven him.

Dear Lord, I'm so grateful I'm still loved.
