Quotes by Susan Lucci

I love spaghetti and meatballs...I eat a lot.

I really always felt that I was going to be an actress. I had a lot of confidence in the fact that I would do well from a very early age. I didn't know how tough the business is.

I was very happy here with my job in daytime television as Erica Kane. And being able to see my children, and all of that has worked for me.

I'm lucky that I hooked up with my husband because he not only helps me but there's a joy for him as well. He enjoyed this part of me when we met. He was never threatened by it, by a woman who wanted a career. In fact, I think he prefers this, that I have a life as well. And I know my children have always known that they came first.

My parents were both from extremely different backgrounds. My father's Italian, my mother was of Swedish descent. They're both first-generation Americans.

People always ask me, how do you do everything you do?

You know what my greatest personal stumbling block is? My shyness.

Life goes on, and I'm moving on to the next thing, but I hope the soaps that are still running will thrive. They have millions of loyal viewers.
