I think I'd like to be one of those eccentric 80-year-old women.
I've lived the wackiest, weirdest life.
It's far too easy to qualify as an eccentric nowadays.
Nor has his death the world deceiv'd than his wondrous life surprise d; if he like a madman liv'd least he like a wise one dy'd.
For years, Warner Bros. was trying to get me to make a movie about Howard Hughes.
I had unusual parents. We'd been to Europe. We'd been in the theater. We were sort of like the Addams Family.
We were all such odd characters, even though we were a really functional family, in a way, as eccentric and crazy as we were. And it was such a wonderful feeling amongst us of being a family almost. We were 'The Addams Family!'
I sometimes feel I have met everyone he ever met, but I never met him. I am afraid to say I have always been - the word I would have to use is - amused by Howard Hughes.
