In the 1960′s, she said to her friend Raymond Daum:
“I’m sorry for a lot of things, for quitting things…. Actually, I’ve been out of order for years. It takes forever for me … to make a move. How can I do anything when I can’t even move from my living room to my other room? A friend told me, ‘You are like a mollusk!’
