It`s that wonderful old-fashioned idea that others come first and you come second. This was the whole ethic by which I was brought up. Others matter more than you do, so `don`t fuss, dear; get on with it.`
I was asked to act when I couldn`t act. I was asked to sing `Funny Face` when I couldn`t sing, and dance with Fred Astaire when I couldn`t dance - and do all kinds of things I wasn`t prepared for. Then I tried like mad to cope with it.
