Jeanne Cooper's Quotes
- [In 2013]: God knows it's claimed a big part of my life!
- I never wanted to be a movie star. I always wanted to be an actress, one of the best. And I am.
- [on receiving the starring role in The Young and the Restless (1973)]: Bill did hire me to dynamise the show. Indeed, it was the original producer, John Conboy, who convinced me to do the show. I was in Hawaii with my kids when I made the final decision to go ahead. I thought long and hard and realized it would be a great opportunity.
- I feel that John Conboy was important in changing daytime TV, Wes Kenney had a true love for actors, Charles Shaughnessy understood the actors' needs and Paul Rauch keeps showing a great sense of discipline.
- [In 2011]: What would I do? I'm no good at crocheting. My fingers would bleed!
