Get another girl











"I'm a tough old broad from Brooklyn. Don't try to make me into something I'm not. If you want someone to tiptoe down the Barkley staircase in crinoline and politely ask where the cattle went, get another girl. "

"I don't give a damn what people think of me, as long as I'm doing something I think is right."

"What the hell, whatever I had... it worked, didn't it?"

A tough old broad from Brooklyn











"My only problem is finding a way to play my fortieth fallen female in a different way from my thirty-ninth."

"Egotism - usually just a case of mistaken nonentity."

"I`m a tough old broad from Brooklyn. I intend to go on acting until I`m ninety and they won`t need to paste my face with make-up."
