I was born on January 8, 1942, exactly three hundred years after the death of Galileo. I estimate, however, that about two hundred thousand other babies were also born that day. I don't know whether any of them was later interested in astronomy.

I come from a big family of storytellers and, growing up, I liked hearing about the years before I was born.

I know that people will remember me as Miss Universe because it was my first great achievement, but I still have my whole career ahead of me.

I was born a year after Lindbergh made his historic trip across the Atlantic. Boys like either dinosaurs or airplanes. I was very much an airplane boy.

My dad has a really great record collection that basically went up to the year I was born: 1984.

I learned more about acting from George Stevens in a few months than I had in my entire life up until then.

I always felt that I was born in the wrong era. I wanted to be friends with John Garfield, for instance.

My father died in '97. But at least he lived until 93, so he saw my success.

Everyone has their dates. For me, it's 1991. I can place every memory of my life either before or after this date. It's the year I became an adult. My mother died, and I created my company shortly thereafter. I definitely would not have done it if she hadn't passed away.
