Tyne Daly

I never played the 'decoration,' I always played the one who suffered. And then I got very lucky in my middle career, when I started playing the hero, which at that point was quite rare for women.

My job always is to play a person, not to judge her.

I'm not glamorous, I don't have a look, I don't know anything about opera, I have no Italian, and I'm too old.

It is hardly surprising that women concentrate on the way they look instead of what is in their minds since not much has been put in their minds to begin with.

I am convinced that the reason so many fans leave Dodger Stadium after the seventh inning is that they become bored.

I don't think they're going to pay me to play Mufasa.
