- [on niece Rita Hayworth] I used to baby-sit for Rita out in Woodside when she was so little she looked like a Japanese doll. From a baby, she was a magnet for men. Her father used to go with her when she had a date, sitting in the car and waiting for her. He had the duenna idea.
- [on Orson Welles] When she [Rita Hayworth] was married to Welles, I never met him. We were in an elevator once. He didn't speak. He was lost in the depth of his genius.
- [on Rita Hayworth's marriage to Prince Aly Khan] It's curious that, when Rita was three, my father wrote a poem, which he called "To My Little Princess." He used to tell her that some day a prince would carry her away. He called her Princess Margarita. Maybe Rita doesn't even remember it, but today her formal name is "Princess Margarita".
