Famous quotes by Mary Tyler Moore:

"The Defenders."

"I can't believe it's going to be 8 feet tall, ... I just hope it's vertical and not horizontal."

"These women are certainly trailblazers,"

"Having a dream is what keeps you alive, ... Overcoming the challenges make life worth living."

"I think it's going to be very difficult for the people in Congress to listen to these children tell them what it's like to live with a chronic disease like diabetes and not remember it,"

"I'm not an actress who can create a character. I play me."

"You can't be brave if you've only had wonderful things happen to you."

"Sometimes you have to get to know someone really well to realize you're really strangers."

"Take chances, make mistakes. That's how you grow. Pain nourishes your courage. You have to fail in order to practice being brave."

"I don't know how to do the other, so I won't even consider television until the audience's taste changes."

"I just like the continue doing what I've been doing. A melange of funny, straight drama, television, movies, a little theater here and there wouldn't hurt. So if I can keep doing that, I'll be a very happy person."

"I live in New York simply because I don't know any better. I moved there when the show went off the air a couple of years after that."

"And then Dick called and said, I'm going to do a special called Dick Van Dyke and the other woman, that would be you, because every time I try to check into a hotel with my wife, they look at me as though I'm cheating on Laura."

"No candy bars unless I've had a low blood sugar where I'm shaky."

"Reruns are wonderful because it usually indicates that they had something going for them to begin with and that's why you're still looking at them. And in both my shows, The Dick Van Dyke Show and the last one, they were so well written and so good they hold up."

"The kinds of shows that seem to work now, the comedy shows, are those which require very little attention. They're superficial and I like articulate comedy."

"And I came close to losing a part of my foot on two occasions. I hope I'm consistently lucky and that the next time I develop a blister or step on something sharp, that I don't go as far as I did on those two times."

"And that's what the audience was feeling too, as they watched the show and as they watch it now. And overriding all of that is the way it was written. It was written honestly. There was never any manufactured laugh. There was never compromising of character."

"Well, Rhoda was, I think, the last actress that we saw. There had been so many wonderful actresses who were close, really close. But there was no magical epiphany."

"And the sculptor woman was so clever in the way she did it. She had the beret just about to leave my hand. So it's attached to this finger and that's what will keep it there. And I'm looking up at it, so there's no question but that that beret is going to fly."
