Kim Stanley Quotes:

Emily Ann Faulkner, age 8: [to her cat] Kitty, I got promoted today


Emily Ann Faulkner: It's a fraud, John - isn't it. It's a fraud. You know, I can hardly get out of a taxi in New York City but what there's people crowding around me, screaming about how much they love me!


Myra Savage: So bright after a séance. Brightness just seems to fall from the air.

Kim Stanley Facts
Was twice nominated for Broadway's Tony Award as Best Actress (Dramatic): in 1959, for Eugene O'Neill 's "A Touch of the Poet," and in 1962, for "A Far Country." Although one of Broadway's most esteemed actresses, she never won a Tony.

Turned down Kim Novak's part in Vertigo (1958).

After successfully playing the lead in "Bus Stop" on Broadway, she was unsuccessful in her campaign to recreate the part of Cherie in the screen version, and the role went to Marilyn Monroe. Ironically, just two years later, Stanley won an Oscar nomination for "The Goddess," a role loosely based on Monroe's life.
