Everybody has a unique, interesting story to tell. I think what people can take away from this is that their story isn't any less valuable than mine, or my mother's. And because she had fame, that did not make her life that much easier or luckier. She had lots of perks. I doubt she would have traded what she had. But it wasn't all that easy. A lot is expected of people who have that kind of fame. It's a lot to carry around. It changes your life significantly. And not everybody is ready for that. Show less «

[on whether her mother, Lucille Ball, considered herself a feminist] She would never have said that about herself. I think it ended up feeling like that to other women - "Look at her, she had the nerve to be that character on television, who wanted to do more than just be a housewife." But, in fact, Lucy Ricardo never really wanted it bad enough to go get it. It just made for good comedy. My mother gets a lot of credit for being the first-woman-this and the first-woman-that. But I remember her saying, "Oh God, I never gave it a second thought.". Show less «

After they got divorced, they respected one another more, the love never changed, sometimes they would still hug and kiss, and then you can't help but stare. Show less «

[on performing onstage with Tommy Tune in "My One and Only"] I really loved it. It was a huge dancing show. I like to challenge myself. I don't know what that's about, probably proving that I'm not just Lucille Ball's daughter, that I can actually get up and do something once in awhile. I would throw myself into these crazy situations. That was one of the best apprenticeships I could ever have as a dancer. Show less «

[on her father, Desi Arnaz] He was big enough and smart enough - as a producer, as a performer - to allow them to make fun of his mild accent. When, in reality, anybody with half-a-brain would be congratulating this person who now speaks two languages, fluently. Show less «

It astounds me. It's been 60 years and counting, and the show has never been off the air. There are now four generations of people who bring kids up first to my mother and dad, now to me. I save the letters. At one point I thought they would make a good book, except it would be redundant. So many people have so many detailed stories of how this particular show affected their home life. Show less «
