My husband had a very strong identity and was successful in his life. Thank God for that. There's no way I can control him. I wouldn't stay married to him if I felt I could. I can readily take my business personality into the home. But he forces me to be a partner rather than the boss.
I'm probably the only person who goes to work and says 'Wow it's really nice here and sweet ' even in the competitive movie business.
Let me tell you quite bluntly that this king business has given me personally nothing but headaches.
I do not want to admit to the world that I can be a bad person. It is just that I don't want anyone to have false expectations. Moviemaking is a harsh volatile business and unless you can be ruthless too there's a good chance that you are going to disappear off the scene pretty quickly.
Show business has been really really good to me because I can work and take a lot of time off and I'm extremely undisciplined person.
I think the fact that I was raised in show business in New York City in the '50s that's affected my personality to the point that I'm a little different.
I've learned that life is very tricky business: Each person needs to find what they want to do in life and not be dissuaded when people question them.
You have a career and you start as a business person. And you work your way you reach this peak and you know the time's going to come when you go back down.
You hear entertainers all the time saying 'If I couldn't get paid for this I'd do it for free.' When's the last time you ever heard a business person say 'If I couldn't get paid for being chairman of British Petroleum I'd do it for free'?
There is no business in America that would be prevented from taking results into account when making personnel decisions.
