In spite of everything life is not without hope.
I used to get the feeling, and sometimes I still get it, that I was fooling somebody – I don’t know who or what – maybe myself. I have feelings some days where there are scenes with a lot of responsibility, and I’ll wish, ‘Gee, if only I had been a cleaning woman.’
Fame will go by and, so long, I’ve had you, fame. If it goes by, I’ve always known it was fickle. So at least it’s something I experience, but that’s not where I live.
I don’t forgive people because I’m weak, I forgive them because I am strong enough to know people make mistakes.
I think that when you are famous every weakness is exaggerated.
I don’t look at myself as a commodity, but I’m sure a lot of people have.
But square-cut or pear-shaped, These rocks don’t lose their shape. Diamonds are a girl’s best friend.
The more I think of it, the more I realize there are no answers. Life is to be lived.
Enjoy the fact that you’re a woman and men will enjoy it too.
Happiness is not in money, but in shopping.
It stirs up envy, fame does. People feel fame gives them some kind of privilege to walk up to you and say anything to you – and it won’t hurt your feelings – like it’s happening to your clothing.
Always, always, always believe in yourself, because if you don’t, then who will, sweetie?
The outside world wants me to have glamour; my fans want me glamorous. I won’t let them down.
Isn’t there any other part of the matzo you can eat?
Dogs have never hurt me. Only men have.
There are many times when a woman will ask another girl friend how she likes her new hat. She will reply, ‘Fine,’ but slap her hand to her forehead the minute the girl leaves to yipe, ‘What a horror!’
Sometimes I think it would be easier to avoid old age, to die young, but then you’d never complete your life, would you? You’d never wholly know you.
I love a natural look in pictures.
I guess I have always been deeply terrified to really be someone’s wife since I know from life one cannot love another, ever, really.
I have too many fantasies to be a housewife. I guess I am a fantasy.
