I do get in the water, but I was ruined by 'Jaws' 'cause I saw it when I was 13. Before that, I used to get in the water everywhere and never thought twice about it. After watching 'Jaws,' I was scared of the water. I have Steven Spielberg to thank for giving me another phobia.

Quite frankly, anything you have you will be told is detrimental or is an asset by whomever you run into, and in the end, you can't listen to anybody about anything.

I've always been concerned about the environment. Becoming a mother only intensified my concern. I became even more alarmed about what we are doing to the earth and what our children will inherit as a result.

I was afraid I'd be typecast forever as a mediocre actress.

What really ticks me off is how the public figures you automatically become the roles you play. What most people never see is the silly side of me.

Every time I watched my acting on 'Dynasty,' I cringed. Creatively, I felt stifled.

When I was younger, we'd stay at stately homes, and at the end of dinner, women would have to leave the table. I used to sit there. I wouldn't leave. I felt England should come out of the Victorian era.

I've had relationships with men who are simply not willing to change their lifestyle. That's fine if you're unformed as a woman and you're able to blend yourself into something that's a convenient vessel. It's hard once you become a mother, I'll tell you. Something changes.
