Quotes

My mother used to say if we did good in life there'd "be a lot of stars in your crown in heaven." We three children were convinced since she died at 95 that she was shining bright in heaven. My mother was a country girl born in Mississippi
Yet what is remarkable is she still holds that "Love Story" patina. She looks the same at 74 and no tell-tale deforming "pullbacks.” She refused to continue that "identity" and has passionately "moved on." Then again she didn't start as a film star but as an artist, and then became a successful stylist (to fashion photographer Melvin Sokolsky and others). She had also worked as an assistant to Diana Vreeland, before she landed in Hollywood."
"It was the dummy that wouldn't die. All the fan mail initially went to Charlie. And Edgar wasn't really welcome at parties in the beginning unless Charlie was with him. It was totally surreal." This will all be based on Candy’s 1984 memoir, "Knock Wood."
This was Pulitzer winning Russell Baker talking to the late Nora Ephron in her divine book "Scribble, Scribble: Notes on the Media.”"
