“Many people are target people. Once when Louis B. Mayer insulted me I poured a glass of water over his head.”

I am a very good shot. I have hunted for every kind of animal. But I would never kill an animal during mating season.

All creative people want to do the unexpected.

Men are most virile and most attractive between the ages of 35 and 55. Under 35 a man has too much to learn, and I don’t have time to teach him.

I don’t believe in life after death. But I do believe in some grinding destiny that watches over us on earth. If I didn’t, the safety valve would give and the boiler would explode.

Films have a certain place in a certain time period. Technology is forever.

Some men like a dull life – they like the routine of eating breakfast, going to work, coming home, petting the dog, watching TV, kissing the kids, and going to bed. Stay clear of it – it’s often catching.

I remember all too well the premiere of Ecstasy when I watched my bare bottom bounce across the screen and my mother and father sat there in shock.

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.

My mother always called me an ugly weed, so I never was aware of anything until I was older. Plain girls should have someone telling them they are beautiful. Sometimes this works miracles.

If I were to name my favorite pastime, I’d have to say talking about myself. I love it and I think most other people do too. We need, people like us, more listeners and less talkers.

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 must quit marrying men who feel inferior to me. Somewhere there must be a man who could be my husband and not feel inferior.

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.

Analysis gave me great freedom of emotions and fantastic confidence. I felt I had served my time as a puppet.

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.

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.

Only dull people are brilliant at breakfast.

Books are like mirrors: if a fool looks in, you cannot expect a genius to look out.

Some cause happiness wherever they go; others whenever they go.

Don’t fool yourself, my dear. You’re much worse than a bitch. You’re a saint. Which shows why saints are dangerous and undesirable.

Every time you left, shit was never right.

I’m trying to think, don’t confuse me with facts.

Each of us deserves the freedom to pursue our own version of happiness. No one deserves to be bullied.

I have nothing but respect for you and not much of that.
