Jean Stapleton Quotes

  • There’s nothing like humor to burst what seems to be an enormous problem.
  • [on her most famous character, Edith] She is not the typical American housewife. At least, I *hope* she’s not the typical American housewife. What Edith represents is the housewife who is still in bondage to the male figure, very submissive and restricted to the home. She is very naive, and she kind of thinks through a mist, and she lacks the education to expand her world. I would hope that most housewives are not like that. [But] I view her as a true and honest reflection of a woman who is part of a family like the Bunkers. She has her good points–she is very human, very honest, very compassionate, very intuitive, and in most situations she says the truth and pricks Archie’s inflated ego.
  • [on being identified with Edith] The first time I was on [the TV quiz show] “Hollywood Squares”, I didn’t get one question until the end. I assumed it was because they thought I was a dingbat.
