People had been so attached to the Diane [Cheers] character that audiences and producers found it difficult to think of me in any other terms. It took some time before people would consider me for other parts.

More quotes by Shelley Long
Not everyone can be trusted. I think we all have to be very selective about the people we trust.
Shelley Long
I'm not as klutzy as I used to be... I've had visual therapy and all kinds of things to help, but I still wrap my purse around chair legs when I stand up to leave. I do ridiculous things on camera because I do them in my life all the time.
Shelley Long
It's just a crime that people don't take the time and make the effort to have a conversation if it's bothering them that much.
Shelley Long
Everyone wants the two characters to be together, but then once they are, it's not that much fun.
Shelley Long
I'm a real 'go, go' person... I'd make myself crazy by pushing too hard. It's important to pull pack the reins a little bit and get in touch with what's inside.
Shelley Long
I was not a womanizer I didn't date a lot. If I kissed somebody, I was basically married from that point on.
Shelley Long
If brains were money, you'd need to take out a loan to buy a cup of coffee.
Shelley Long
I'm not perfect, but I'd like to be perfect. I'm working on it.
Shelley Long
I love being a mother...I am more aware. I feel things on a deeper level. I have a kind of understanding about my body, about being a woman.
Shelley Long
In a real relationship, you take two steps forward, one step back. So just because we take two steps forward and get all the benefit from that doesn't mean we can't go back or to the side.
Shelley Long
Did you know that, if you visualise, you can actually hug on the phone?
Shelley Long
I've helped people get rid of headaches by placing my hand on their forehead, and backaches by placing my hand on their back. It's a powerful example of love that really works.
Shelley Long
I can't say I based [Carla] on anybody I knew. She was so foulmouthed and mean, just said what was on her mind. So I guess Carla is somebody I always wished I could be at the right moment, the one who always has the perfect comeback.
Shelley Long
I dont believe in predestination, even though I was raised a Presbyterian.
Shelley Long
I really felt sometimes like I was physically pulling the plot, and it was heavy. I'm sure it didn't look great that I was going into my dressing room at lunch.
