“Whatever God wants you to do, you can do it.”

“Back then, it was more or less we couldn't change a line in our script. We weren't allowed to change a line.”

“I was a tomboy. I was always with the boys. I was the only girl in the neighborhood.”

“I love animals. I've had all kinds of animals.”

“People still call me Elly May. I love it.”

“God has a plan for all of us, and it's all for our good.”

“When I was young, I didn't want to be a movie star. I wanted to be a missionary.”
