Way off in 2060, I wonder what we do today will look like in perspective, and after it's been sifted through the objectivity of time.
When we came to do the take, I did it my way. I played it with all the emotional abandon I possessed and loved every second of my performance.
I know elderly people who have so lived in their long lives. Today, they find great pleasure in each and every day.
If you want a place in the sun, you have to expect a few blisters
I well remember how sure I was of myself when I was in my teens. I'm not critical of teens today.
I was always independent. I never wanted to follow the crowd, but I think that following the crow is more typical of teenage behavior today than in my day. And I do deplore it.
My work has brought me into contact with the world's finest designers. I had a lot to learn. I have learned a lot. I found out you can learn a lot about yourself as a person, too-while you're learning how to use fashion in your life.
Listening is more than just a very rewarding habit. After awhile you discover what a world of information you can gain from hearing what others say, and If you're interested, you're interesting. All the most popular people are good listeners.
Hands are always conspicuous, and if used carelessly, they'll always detract, never be a plus to the enhancement of personality.

I was not quite 4 when Mamma moved all of us and all our worldly goods to Hollywood.
What you don't know intrigues you more than what you do know. I believed all those love stories-the hero was the hero-because that's what I grew up with. I loved the romance and the roses, but when it came to a more realistic life, I would back away.
I feel almost sad whenever I see a woman stare blankly into space.
Everything worthwhile, everything of any value, has its price. Everything anyone has ever wanted has come neatly wrapped up in its penalties.
