[on playing the jilted bride in Il rompicuori (1972)] Nobody believes me, but yes, I did have to test for the part, just like anybody else - even though the director was my mother, Elaine May. I've been told I look like Anne Bancroft, Ingrid Bergman, and from some angles, Tiny Tim.

[on her mother, Elaine May] Professionally speaking, I'm one of her biggest fans, and out of all the theatre and movies I've done, she is my favorite director. As a mother, she's totally competent, a good sport, and my big thing is to work up to doing as many chin-ups as she can do.

[in an interview with the New York Times in 1973] Actually, the real reason I don't want to get married is that you have to get a blood test. I hate needles. I mean, injections, or anything like that, absolutely petrify me. I just faint immediately. I get this feeling I'm going to be murdered. I mean, doctors just terrify me.
