- I loved my work and I took it seriously.
- One of the problems of being an actor is that you work, and then you don't work. The time that you don't work might be extensive and you do still have to continue to live.
- [on Dave O'Brien, with whom she worked on Dead or Alive (1944)] . . . the funniest guy--he had that series of Pete Smith shorts at Metro. I laugh when I think about him and picture him in my mind. He was the best comedian; very humorous; he would make everybody laugh--a great talent; such a humorist. But of course he could play it straight.
- [on The Three Stooges, with whom she made several two-reelers at Columbia] Curly [Curly Howard] was the funniest; everything about him was funny. Shemp [Shemp Howard] was good, too. The Stooges would discuss everything before a take--I don't think they had a script. They were very serious--then become clowns on the set! Cookoo Cavaliers (1940) was my favorite. I wore a bathing suit and they followed me around.
- [on Christine McIntyre] Christine McIntyre was a very sweet girl. Very talented. She could sing, do comedy, anything. She's that beautiful blonde who was in so many Columbia shorts. Part of their ensemble, so to speak.
