wise wisdom taken
I have not been that wise. Health I have taken for granted. Love I have demanded, perhaps too much and too often. As for money, I have only realized its true worth when I didn't have it.
travel interesting people
I've met the most interesting people while flying or on a boat. These methods of travel seem to attract the kind of people I want to be with.
money people advise
I advise everybody not to save: spend your money. Most people save all their lives and leave it to somebody else. Money is to be enjoyed.
running want-something people
I would tell anyone who wants something from someone else to feign not wanting it. People are perverse. If you show great affection to them, they'll run the other way.
birthday confidence age
Confidence is something you're born with. I know I had loads of it even at the age of 15.
funny beauty girl
Any girl can be glamorous. All you have to do is stand still and look stupid.
stars sleep men
The ladder of success in Hollywood is usually a press agent, actor, director, producer, leading man; and you are a star if you sleep with each of them in that order. Crude, but true.
curiosity guarantees attractive
Hope & curiosity about the future seemed better than guarantees. The unknown was always so attractive to me...and still is.
stars people taste
To be a star is to own the world and all the people in it. After a taste of stardom, everything else is poverty.
secret trying said
Jack Kennedy always said to me, Hedy, get involved. That's the secret of life. Try everything. Join everything. Meet everybody.
beauty men competition
I find very often that very ugly women have really handsome men and vice versa because they don't have any competition. Sometimes handsome men have avoided me.
glasses water people
Many people are target people. Once when Louis B. Mayer insulted me I poured a glass of water over his head.
people creative want
All creative people want to do the unexpected.
funny men cash
It's funny about men and women. Men pay in cash to get them and pay in cash to get rid of them. Women pay emotionally coming and going. Neither has it easy.
