I'm one of the world's most self-conscious people. I really have to struggle.
A kiss on the hand might feel very good, but a diamond tiara is forever.
What I really want to say: That what the world really needs is a real feeling of kinship. Everybody: stars, laborers, Negroes, Jews, Arabs. We are all brothers.
Sometimes I think I was more in control of my life years and years ago, and yet one should make progress; one should learn more every year and become…well, if not happier, then calmer and more able to handle your problems. But I’m not. Sometimes I just seem to make more problems for myself. I do. It makes me feel I haven’t grown up as much as I should have by now.
It's better to be angry without paying for gold than to be angry after you paid.
Fame to me certainly is only a temporary and a partial happiness ... fame is not really for a daily diet, that's not what fulfills you. It warms you a bit but the warming is temporary. It's like caviar, you know - it's good to have caviar but not when you have to have it every meal and every day.
Marriage destroyed my relationship with two wonderful men.
I am good, but not an angel.

You can read about yourself but what's important is how you feel about yourself.
I'm for the individual as opposed to the corporation. The way it is the individual is the underdog, and with all the things a corporation has going for them the individual comes out banged on her head. The artist is nothing. It's really tragic.

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.
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.
