When it gets hot like this, you know what I do? I keep my undies in the ice box.
I have never been able to wear pajamas or creepy nightgowns; they disturb my sleep.
Fame is fickle, and I know it. It has its compensations but it also has its drawbacks, and I've experienced them both.
Dogs have never hurt me. Only men have.
I don't know if high society is different in other cities, but in Hollywood, important people can't stand to be invited someplace that isn't full of other important people. They don't mind a few unfamous people being present because they make good listeners.
Personally, I react to Marlon Brando. He's a favorite of mine.
In Hollywood a girl's virtue is much less important than her hairdo. You're judged by how you look, not by what you are. Hollywood's a place where they'll pay you a thousand dollars for kiss, and fifty cents for your soul. I know, because I turned down the first offer often enough and held out for the fifty.
I'm a failure as a woman. My men expect so much of me, because of the image they've made of me- and that I've made of myself- as a sex symbol. They expect bells to ring and whistles to whistle, but my anatomy is the same as any other woman's and I can't live up to it.
My marriage didn't make me sad, but it didn't make me happy either. My husband and I hardly spoke to each other. This wasn't because we were angry. We had nothing to say. I was dying of boredom.
If I'm a star, then the people made me a star.
If a star or studio chief or any other great movie personages find themselves sitting among a lot of nobodies, they get frightened - as if somebody was trying to demote them.
I want to say to the people, if I am a star, the people made me a star. No studio, no person, but the people did.
The only thing a star asks is to be allowed to twinkle.
What good am I? I can't have kids. I can't cook. I've been divorced three times. Who would want me?
There's only one sort of natural blonde on earth - albinos.
When you're a failure in Hollywood, that's like starving to death outside a banquet hall, with smells of filet mignon driving you crazy.
Experts on romance say for a happy marriage there has to be more than a passionate love. For a lasting union, they insist, there must be a genuine liking for each other. Which, in my book, is a good definition for friendship.
I finally made up my mind I wanted to be an actress and I was not going to let my lack of confidence ruin my chances.
Beauty and femininity are ageless and can't be contrived, and glamour, although the manufacturers won't like this, cannot be manufactured. Not real glamour; it's based on femininity.
You never know what life is like, until you have lived it.
Looking back, I guess I used to play-act all the time. For one thing, it meant I could live in a more interesting world than the one around me.
Yes, there was something special about me, and I knew what it was. I was the kind of girl they found dead in a hall bedroom with an empty bottle of sleeping pills in her hand.
Someone said to me, 'If fifty percent of the experts in Hollywood said you had no talent and should give up, what would you do?' My answer was then and still is, 'If a hundred percent told me that, all one hundred percent would be wrong.'
For a long time I was scared I'd find out I was like my mother.
I don't digest things with my mind.
