Mary Tyler Moore
I don't think there's anything quite as dashing as a cop on horseback. To me it's wonderful.
Mary Tyler Moore
I wish that I could write. I think that's a wonderful outlet for an artist. You are ultimately in control. Your fate is not determined by outside influences. You can write wherever you are. I don't think I have the talent.
Mary Tyler Moore
Sometimes you have to get to know someone really well to realize you're really strangers.
Mary Tyler Moore

I think marriage, in its loosest sense, is people committing to each other saying I love you and I like being with you and that is wonderful. I don't see the need to formalize it unless you plan to have children and you want the fair distribution of assets.
Mary Tyler Moore
I don't want anyone to tell me something.
Mary Tyler Moore
No candy bars unless I've had a low blood sugar where I'm shaky
Mary Tyler Moore

Mary Tyler Moore
I have always been a combination of both security and insecurity.
Mary Tyler Moore
I still feel as if I weren't a good enough mother. I didn't break any rules. I didn't cause my son any pain. But I did bring to my life some of my father, who was very controlling and very remote. I was working a lot. I wasn't there enough.
Mary Tyler Moore
Worrying is a necessary part of life.
Mary Tyler Moore
But I'm very happy with my life the way it has been turning out. A little time in the country, a little time with the animals and working on behalf of them.
Mary Tyler Moore
My weakness is pizza, any form of carbohydrate. I like junk carbohydrates, I like cheap greasy cheeseburgers, quality french fries.
Mary Tyler Moore
I have no problem walking in New York because I have a very brisk pace: By the time anyone recognizes me, it's too late, I'm four blocks away from them.
Mary Tyler Moore
You can't be brave if you've only had wonderful things happen to you.
Mary Tyler Moore
Behind every beautiful fur, there is a story. It is a bloody, barbaric story.
Mary Tyler Moore
