If any of you have ever played Olivia on stage or screen, you may appreciate the following thoughts...


"If this costume proves anything, it goes to show that humanity did fall by the force of gravity."

"...to be sick of self-love and taste with a distempered appetite..."

"Does the grabbing start now? Let the grabbing commence!"

"Olivia has a very firm grasp of the meaning of haste."

"In anticipation of some very derogatory remarks that will probably be uttered regarding Olivia's eyesight, I would just like to say that those persons have little or no imagination whatsoever."

"Are we all ready to be fools!"

"For the record, I do not have a heart of stone. I love people, I just love certain ones, that's all."

"I don't have a problem with Toby drinking, it's that blasted quaffing that I cannot endure."

"Deciding to love below my station is the most democratic and ridiculous thing I ever did."

"I am my biggest headache."
