The Madmen Seem To Live On Forever,

Very Few People Want To Hear The Truth. Bogie Was Like That, My Mother Was Like That, And I'm Like That. I Believe In The Truth, And I Believe In Saying What You Think. Why Not? Do You Have To Go Around Whispering All The Time Or Playing A Game With People? I Just Don't Believe In That. So I'm Not The Most Adored Person On The Face Of The Earth.

My Son Tells Me, 'do You Realize You Are The Last One? The Last Person Who Was An Eyewitness To The Golden Age?' Young People, Even In Hollywood, Ask Me, 'were You Really Married To Humphrey Bogart?' 'well, Yes, I Think I Was,' I Reply. You Realize Yourself When You Start Reflecting - Because I Don't Live In The Past, Although Your Past Is So Much A Part Of What You Are - That You Can't Ignore It. But I Don't Look At Scrapbooks. I Could Show You Some, But I'd Have To Climb Ladders, And I Can't Climb

I Don't Consider Myself A Great Actress. I'm Just Trying To Stay Alive, Actually. I Think I'm Good, And I've Learned A Lot, Certainly, Mostly In The Theater. I've Been Sloughed Off Movies For Years. But What Can You Do? That's Life.

Patience Was Not My Strong Point.

Yes, I Saw Twilight - My Granddaughter Made Me Watch It, She Said It Was The Greatest Vampire Film Ever. After The 'film' Was Over I Wanted To Smack Her Across Her Head With My Shoe, But I Do Not Want A (tell-all) Book Called Grannie Dearest Written On Me When I Die. So Instead I Gave Her A Dvd Of Murnau's 1922 Masterpiece Nosferatu And Told Her, 'now That's A Vampire Film!' And That Goes For All Of You! Watch Nosferatu Instead!
