Virginia Mayo's quotes
- I must say Jack Palance was a drag. We were together in The Silver Chalice (1954). The way he did his work was strange. He was a weird actor and I didn't like working with him at all.
- [on Doris Day] I loved working with her. We used to call her Miss Sparkle Plenty because she was so vivacious.
- [on Alan Ladd] And I worked with Alan Ladd who, along with Gregory Peck, was my favorite leading man. He was a beautiful man, charming and gentle, and I think, of all my leading men, he worked best with me.
- [on how she met her husband, Michael O'Shea] He just sat there watching me, and then he walked right up and kissed me.
- I was a better actress than I was given credit for. I know that for a fact. But you get stamped . . . categorized as pretty, a beauty, shapely . . . and you're just stamped for life.
- Working with comedians like [Bob Hope] and [Danny Kaye] taught me timing, pace and fine points of acting I never would have learned otherwise.
- Making films outdoors is far more difficult than making them inside. You always have to worry about the weather and something interfering with the sound.
- [on Joel McCrea] Wonderful, friendly, funny...great to work with. He loved to tell jokes, and his riding was like watching a symphony. He rode so beautifully.
- [on Kirk Douglas] He was too intense for me. He was okay, just too intense.
- [on Randolph Scott] I hardly knew the man! I was supposed to be the leading lady in Westbound (1958), but my part was tiny. The director [Budd Boetticher] gave his girlfriend [Karen Steele] the big part, and I didn't like that at all.
- [asked what her favorite movie is] She's Working Her Way Through College (1952). I enjoyed doing musicals best because I got to dance.
- [on Raoul Walsh] He liked me and I liked him. He was a funny man and nice to work for.
- I did a movie in early 1990. It was a horror film [Evil Spirits (1991)] - and it probably will be horrible.
- [on Ronald Reagan] He was great fun to be with. He was always friendly, gracious, charming and very professional. Everyone enjoyed being with him.
