Mary Tyler Moore's quotes

  • Sometimes, you have to get to know someone really well to realize you're really strangers.
  • There is a dark side. I tend not to be as optimistic as Mary Richards. I have an anger in me that I carry from my childhood experiences -- I expect a lot of myself and I'm not too kind to myself.
  • Diabetes is an all-too-personal time bomb which can go off today, tomorrow, next year, or 10 years from now - a time bomb affecting millions like me and the children here today.
  • I'm not an actress who can create a character. I play me.
  • Diets are for those who are thick and tired of it.
  • Couldn't you just slap my face for being so positive and optimistic?
  • [on her pit bull Spanky] He has, as with some dogs that have been written about, the ability to sense when things are off in their owners, their masters, whatever we're calling them in this day and age. He can tell when my blood sugar is dipping low.
  • I've been a diabetic for about 35 years now (as of 2012), and I'm one of the very lucky few who has managed to live that long without having major problems. I do have problems with my eyes, one eye in particular, and if I fall, I generally break a bone.
  • [being coy in a 1995 interview with Bryant Gumbel] I'm an actress! That's all I do. I don't know nothin' about runnin' no business!
  • [2009] When one looks at what's happened to television, there are so few shows that interest me. I do watch a lot of Fox News. I like Charles Krauthammer and Bill O'Reilly.
  • I smoked three packs a day. There was hardly time to do anything else.
