I'm not into animal rights. I'm only into animal welfare and health. I've been with the Morris Animal Foundation since the '70s. We're a health organization.

John Randolph

Just once in my life a man tried to embrace me. It was horrible! He had big boots, a heavy belt, huge gloves. Faugh! Oh, let's not talk about men.

Renee Vivien

My dad loved black singers. So listening to New Orleans music, eventually I wanted to play an instrument.
