Sex isn’t all that important, but it is when you love someone very much.

Ava Gardner

Oh, what the hell did I know? I went to the set the first day in full makeup and the director told me to take it off. So I did the film without makeup. I had nothing to do with anything I did. I never understood why I was so famous.
