“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.”

I enjoy countless hundreds pursuing me. I love those who love me the most. I am sort of flattered by men showing attention to me.

A good painting to me has always been like a friend. It keeps me company, comforts and inspires.

Most children turn out badly because they have the wrong parental image. This doesn’t mean their parents are criminal. It means they are boring and cruel.

Making pictures, for an actress, is like betting, for a gambler. Each time you make a picture you try to analyze why you won or lost.

Confidence is something you’re born with. I know I had loads of it even at the age of 15.

I know why most people never get rich. They put the money ahead of the job. If you just think of the job, the money will automatically follow. This never fails.

I win because I learned years ago that scared money always loses. I never care, so I win.

I can excuse everything but boredom. Boring people don’t have to stay that way.

When I attained a certain advanced intimacy with a man, and I don’t just mean sex, I married him.

Jack Kennedy always said to me, Hedy, get involved. That’s the secret of life. Try everything. Join everything. Meet everybody.

The world isn’t getting any easier. With all these new inventions I believe that people are hurried more and pushed more, The hurried way is not the right way; you need time for everything – time to work, time to play, time to rest.

I don’t have any gnawing guilt over contributing to any unhappiness suffered by my husbands. They were as much to blame as I was.

Dates with actors, finally, just seemed to me evenings of shop talk. I got sick of it after a hile. So the more famous I became, the more I narrowed down my choices.

Compromise and tolerance are magic words. It took me 40 years to become philosophical.

I have never seen a wrestling match or a prize fight, and I don’t want to. When I find out a man is interested in these sports, I drop him.

All my six husbands married me for different reasons.

If I had a superpower it would have to be being able to eat whatever you want and stay skinny.

We will stand up for what is right, for what is fair and what is just. Health care is a right and not a privilege.

My body will not be a tomb for other creatures.

Depression is deadened feeling, which is so very different from feeling sad. Sad hurts but it’s a healthy feeling. It is a necessary thing to feel.

Our health is the most important thing we have.

Excellence on the field starts in the kitchen and the gym.

Health must always come first. It is an exceptional moment and we must follow the indications of both health organizations and public authorities.

Staying healthy and hygienic is important.
