Stella Stevens's Quotes

  • I did the best I could with the tools I had and the opportunities given me. My life was screwed up early by getting pregnant at 15 and married, then a baby at 16, then divorced at 17. But in spite of that start, I've done all right.
  • It's been my heart's desire to direct since I started doing movies. I directed two films in the '70s and '80s. One was a feature-length documentary. But I've still not made my debut with a big film. I'm working on doing that now... So why has it taken me so long? Because it was hard as a "sexpot", as I was labeled in the '60s and '70s, to have people take me seriously as a producer or director. They would rather see me without my clothes on.
