Barbara Eden's Quotes

  • I don't know what I am doing from one moment to the next. I like that not knowing because it's always a surprise. You don't know what's around the corner, you know what role am I going to play next and who am I going to be working with. It's like opening a present.
  • I played the Marilyn Monroe role of "Loco" in How to Marry a Millionaire (1957), though I didn't consider myself as that kind of actress, I approached the role more as a character.
  • Every New Year's I resolve to have a better year than I had before.
  • If gentlemen prefer blondes then I'm a blonde that prefers gentlemen.
  • Out of all the actors I have worked with, I love working with Larry Hagman the most. We were very close and it was just a wonderful time.
