- Priscilla: (when asked about her childhood) I was the black sheep, so I became very dramatic.

- Priscilla: (about being cast as Terri Alden on Three's Company) I read for them, but they turned me down. They wanted someone younger. In Hollywood, you're over the hill when you are 25. They said my cheekbones made me appear too stylized, too high fashioned. And so they hired Jenilee Harrison.

- Priscilla: The director kept saying to me, 'You have to do this CPR stuff to the letter, you have to be very specific about it'. I said, 'Okay, fine.' In March there was an article in the newspaper that this little nine-year-old girl had saved this guy's life. How did she save the guy's life? CPR. How did she learn CPR? She saw Terri Alden doing it on Three's Company. Isn't that something?
