Before I was working out, if somebody told me that I would actually choose fruit over french fries, I would never believe them.

I married young. I had an instinct that this man was going to really wear well, and he has. For me, this is what worked. I always admired Helmut because he was, A, very smart, B, very sure of himself and very, very funny, and so that combination of things.

I was a shy little girl. Growing up, I was often content being alone in my room, making up stories, and acting out all the parts. I became so good at it that, with the door closed, my parents thought I had friends over.

The sense of acting being teamwork was a mentality that I took from school: I studied with wonderful people, and I wanted them to be proud of me.

I love fashion.

I was very lucky both of my parents had really nice skin.

I grew up loving Broadway musicals. I'd put on my parents' cast albums and stand on the stool and sing in the mirror.

You don't have to get doughty or, suddenly, because you have a new label on you, 'Oh, I'm 50, so therefore, I have to be a certain thing.' Follow your heart and look at your rear view as well as your front view!

I do crunches to keep those abs going strong and flat. I'm not a sedentary person.

I think we all cheer for couples who just seem right together and go the distance.
