All I've done is live my life in the theater and loved it.
From Marian Seldes
I'm fairly obedient. I do what I'm told.
I've never been obsessed by how I looked. In fact, I would rather have looked more ordinary so I could play more parts more truthfully.
If you're unhappy in a relationship, I think you just don't trust yourself for getting into another one.
I would hate to think of the theatre world without critics. Without them, we'd not have the record of each season.
An actress spends a lifetime observing people. You build up a mental library. No, not a library. Make that a repository.
Unfortunately, there are mental invalids of every age who exist on other people's terms. It's lazy for older persons to let others make up their minds for them. People have to overcome that.
I think of myself as only being an actress when I'm acting, but my friends will say I act all the time.
I think the first time I was ever really conscious of the difference between people's voices was that my mother's voice was so soft and gentle and her pronunciation was so perfect.
When I began to act, I was about 6 years old. Everything you learned, every period of history you studied, you did a play about it.
