MAUREEN O'SULLIVAN

Hollywood was a fantasy world in more ways than one.

Will Rogers wasn't helpful to me at all. He was just concerned with his way of doing things. He didn't like me much because I used to wear slacks to the studio, and that was not done much in those days, so I guess he thought I was rather fast.

It's nice to be immortal. Film has given us immortality. Now my children are going to appreciate Tarzan.

I don't think I ever got parts that interested me. Well, I did occasionally, but more often than not, they did not interest me.

Wallace Beery was a tiresome actor.

I seem to have a one-track mind. When I was having babies, I did nothing else. When I do pictures, I go all out. I really think it is easier to manage my seven. You can't afford to humor each one of them. They have to learn to do things when they are told.

Cheetah bit me whenever he could. The [Tarzan movie] apes were all homosexuals, eager to wrap their paws around Johnny Weismuller's thighs. They were jealous of me, and I loathed them.
