　　5. I wanted to be in the FBI. I also wanted to be a pie salesman. It was so intense that the studio got the prop department to make a little pie wagon and they filled it with tarts. I wheeled it around the set and sold them to the crew. I was about 8 years old. I always sold out and I didn't have to pay for them. It was a great deal!我想当联邦调查局探员。我还想成为馅饼销售员。这个想法是如此的强烈，以至于当工作室得到小吃车道具并将它装满馅饼时，我推着它绕着剧组晃并把馅饼卖给工作人员。那时我八岁左右，不用替他们付钱。这是笔很不错的交易！

　　10. We would have to invent the U.N. if we did not have it, which is not an original thought.没有联合国就得创造联合国，并不是我才这么想。

　　11. I'm not too proud of the movies I made as a grownup except for 'That Hagen Girl', which nobody remembers but which gave me a chance to act.长大后除了《哈根女孩》，我没有为我的任何一部分电影感到非常骄傲，。虽然没人记得这部电影，但正是它给了我演戏的机会。
