Quote

I wanted to be a world champion.

No one expected me to become a champion.

I never had the chance to consider what or how I wanted to be.

I did not see myself as a leading lady. I thought I was really funny-looking and I would never be the lead, and I certainly would never do film or television. I wanted to do theater. I wanted to be the grand dame of the American stage.

The only thing I ever wanted to be was a professional football player.

When I wanted to be an actress, I never wanted really to be the kind of actress I became.
