John Candy knew he was going to die. He told me on his 40th birthday. He said, well, Maureen, I'm on borrowed time.

My heritage has been my grounding, and it has brought me peace.

Henry Fonda gave me a spanking during a scene in Spencer's Mountain.

Above all else, deep in my soul, I'm a tough Irishwoman.

I was born into the most remarkable and eccentric family I could possibly have hoped for.
