My grandmother always came to my shows. She was always concerned about the way I dressed - even later on, when I was well known and I supported her.

The problem with me is, I guess, the way I express myself, you have to be with me 50 years before you can get a sense of what I'm talking about.

I'm so shy now I wear sunglasses everywhere I go.

Did you know I started out as a stand-up comic? People don't believe me when I tell them. That's how I saw myself, in comedy.

There has been a lot of self-doubt and unwelcome events in my life.
