    I once saw Lucy make a brief appearance on a local, morning children's show in Philadelphia. It was clear she was just stopping in on the way to the airport or something and this was no highly orchestrated visit. The host was a very genial, mild-mannered younger man, who was utterly thrilled to be in her presence. But even as a child, I could easily sense how dismissive and above-it-all Lucy felt. It was as if the queen had deigned to pay a visit to the peasants and then realized just how awful they smelled. Her nose was literally in the air and she looked around the set as if it were a landfill. It all lasted just a couple minutes, but even my 8-year-old self was embarrassed for the fawning host, who was treated like he had a contagious disease. It was horrific. Or I should say, she was.

    "...she was a monster of staggering charmlessness..." The man had an admirable mastery of the English language.

    I could listen to Richard Burton insulting people all day.

    No one could say "loathe" or "loathed"  better than Richard Burton. He used language to infuse every word with its true meaning.

    Telling Richard Burton how to act is like telling Picasso how to paint.

    Worked at Twa and all of the Flight Attendants that served her on board called her the rudest meanest person they had to deal with

    It seems that Lucille was almost universally disliked but a great exception is Carol Burnett. They had a very close friendship. Carol received flowers every birthday including the birthday which was also the day Lucille died.
