You have to remember that when I met Elvis, you know, it wasn't the fanfare that it is today or even when he was here in the states and I was in Germany growing up.

You know, I had my mother and my father convincing me that he would be going back to Hollywood and he'd be back with the actresses and dating them and that he wasn't serious about me at all. So I had him saying one thing to me and my parents telling me something else.

Inner beauty should be the most important part of improving one's self.

As a person, he was wonderful. He really was a great person. He was full of life. He had a great sense of humor. Very talented, of course, but very caring to his parents. There was a very endearing quality about Elvis.

I don't want to be someone's entertainment.

I lived a really wonderful life with this man and even after our divorce, it was incredible.

And when Elvis was unhappy, believe me, everyone was unhappy.

I did, but I'm not real fond of giving interviews.

I don't feel like a grandmother. I don't.

I lived somebody else's life. It was never about me, it was really about him on every level.

There is a shyness about me, and I really need to get out more.

There were the phone calls and Elvis had asked me to visit him in Los Angeles. This was in 1962.

Yes, the divorce was difficult. It was difficult.

You know, Lisa, for the longest time, did not sing.

You know, you know, obviously, if my daughter's happy, you know, then I don't have any problem.

Absolutely. I - you know, he was so that much a part of my life that, you know, Elvis, you know, once - once you bonded with him, I mean, there was no - there was no going back. He was just a great guy.

At times he could be very critical. He didn't like prints on me. He didn't like stripes. He didn't like boldness. He said I was petite and that was taking away from my looks.

He would use amphetamines to stay awake because he would have late night maneuvers that would go way into the early morning hours and he was given pills to stay up for the long hours.
